Sunday, February 20, 2022 — Seventh Sunday of Ordinary Time — I give you a new commandment, says the Lord: "Love one another as I have loved you" — Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 6, 27-38
For a true Christian life, we must adopt three precepts, never proposed elsewhere than by Christ. First, beware of revenge. That is to say, to free oneself from the social practice of proportional response. Then, love without reserve or distinction and above all without expecting either recognition or reward. And finally, to have a compassionate heart, unable to remain indifferent to the misfortunes of others and in particular knowing how to forgive. In short, it is about overcoming evil with good.
