by Return to Me: Lenten Reflections by Holy Cross 2019
There are times when we may not be holy ourselves, when we are too distracted by our selfish thoughts to respond to our neighbor in need. As children of the Lord, we are invited to make decisions and to act not just for ourselves but also for others. It is hard at times today, with so many distractions that life offers us. We are all so alike -- people with feelings for the understanding of love for each other as children of God. As holy as God is, we need to follow His words, not just as an action but as passion to be greater than ourselves: to love each other with God in our minds. The Lord soke to Moses about His plan for His children; today, God's children are tempted to forget His words. Let us do more for each other with God's plan in our actions, not only put a little more peace and love in our hearts but have a little more God in our thoughts.
