“May the Lord make you increase and abound in love for one another and for all…” - 1 Thessalonians 3:12
We have to learn to love and care for each other. We have to grow our capacity for empathy and understanding. for compassion, to nurture.
We have grow our willingness to do this and be this not only for our friends, and families and communities, we have to learn how to do this for the ones we consider other.
We have to open our eyes to see the many things we have in common. We have to open our minds to understand that we are all interconnected, that we share a common fate.
Abounding in love may not come easily or naturally for all of us. Some of us are so filled with righteous indignation and rage that we don’t even want to.
Yet it’s the only way we can experience inner peace and wellbeing. It’s the only way we can build the world the prophets and poets described where everyone sits under the share of their own grape vine and we study war no more.
May the Lord make us increase and abound in love for one another and for all.
I’m Horace McMillon. This is 60 Seconds of Hope. Peace be with you.
