Love the Hallmark


This week's full moon near setting
I'm beginning to use for Bible meditation the long talk Jesus has with his disciples at the Last Supper in John's Gospel.  Today what struck me was "By this will all identify you as my disciples--by the love you have for one another"(13:35)  Jesus pushes me to love those in the parish with whom I disagree or whom I don't like.  (The translation is Father Raymond Brown's from his commentary on John, a 1200 page book that I bought in 1970 for $8.)
