Sacrificial Sense of Love
No greater love exists than to sacrifice one's life his / her people.
Wow... What a great saying... Isn't it?
But giving our life and not living it with those whom we love... Does it worth living?
I don't think so... We always wanted to live a life with our loved ones. Then what does it mean to sacrifice one's life???
In love one sacrifices his / her to desires, wishes, goals and the entire life into the other who he / she loves.
In love one has to pour out the life of oneself into the other self... So that the other is responsible for the fulfillment of your life. Similarly the other will replenish you with his / her goals into you so that you are responsible for their life.
I understand sacrifice in this way for a better mankind. We, as faithful, are entrusted in the hand of Priests and religious. Simultaneously the priests and religious are entrusted to our hands.
This sacrificial sense of responsibility is mutual and so Jesus said the kingdom of God is among you.
However humans are intrinsically not perfect we are given another important duty to love one another as Jesus loves us. Because He initiated the love. Since God so loved us, we ought to love one another. (1 John 4:11)
Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.
Since God gave his only son to us it is our utmost responsibility to give ourself to others in love which makes a true sense of sacrifice.
Let's Pray:
O Lord give us the sense of sacrifice in loving others. Amen.
