About this episode

The episode discusses the nature of Christian love as a self-gift and reflects on the Gospel of Mark.

Friends of the Rosary, Christian love is an act of the willing – the willing of the good of the other. "Love your neighbor as yourself," as the Lord says, and we read today in the Gospel (Mark 12:28-34). Love is not primarily a feeling or an instinct; it is a radical self-gift, living for the sake of the other. It's moving beyond the black hole of oneself and, yes, it's acting for the glory of God as we participate in the love that the Lord is. Mind you, it's self-interest to treat someone justly in the interest of receiving something back. When we love the Lord with all our heart, mind, understanding, and strength, then we will understand what true love is. The Solemnity of the Body and Blood of Christ is observed on the Thursday following the feast of the Most Blessed Trinity. However, as it is not observed as a Holy Day of obligation on Thursday, it is assigned to the Sunday after Trinity Sunday, which is then considered its proper day in the calendar. Ave Maria! Come, Holy Spirit, come! To Jesus through Mary! Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will. Please give us the grace to respond with joy! + Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New York Enhance…
