Love and Mercy

God calls us to give love and mercy every day of our lives. St. Aquinas once wrote, "To love is to will the good of another." As God's children, we are asked to love and care for another in good times and bad times, especially in times of need. We are meant to be understanding and kind creatures. To give of our faith and share what we have is what pleases God the most. We are able to love and to give because God loves us first. We are expected to be merciful to those who are less fortunate. Charity is just one of the ways that bring us closer to God.

           Let give of ourselves every day.

Give justice to the weak and the fatherless; 

maintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute.

Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from

the hands of the wicked.

      

                                ~Psalms  82: 3+4
