"In this way we know that we love the children of Godwhen we love God and obey his commandments.
For the love of God is this,
that we keep his commandments" (1 John 5:2-3).
It is impossible for an honest person to be confronted by these words and fail to recognize his need for God's mercy!
It is for this reason that the Catechism of the Catholic Church opens with this affirmation:
"God, infinitely perfect and blessed in himself, in a plan of sheer goodness freely created man to make him share in his own blessed life" (CCC 1)Today's Readings: Sunday, April 23rd, 2006.
