Dear Community! Dear friends!
Have you stopped to think what is "Human Being", what does it mean to become human?
That we are a spirit, we have a soul and we inhabit a body, you know; But what makes us beyond just beings, for human beings?
I believe that being human is the closest and widest way to look like Christ. Be the capacity of identification with the neighbor and the empathy that God has given us.
By the way, empathy is a broad topic to deepen, like sympathy and altruism, a video below gives us an example of this:
Every human being is endowed with empathy, but the oblivion of it makes us cold and distant from love. Empathy shows that all people matter to God! But the lack of it starts all evil.
The apostle Paul recommended similar feelings when he exhorted his fellow Christians to "rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn, "and added:" Be willing to others as you are to yourselves "(Romans 12:15, 16).
What I find most beautiful in God is that his love is available to all, He sent Jesus for everyone, and everyone has the same value for Him. Therefore, we need to be true people, without pretense, with our characteristics and cultures, to be real, just as our Father is, so that the truth may be revealed. It is impossible to show the truth - which is Christ - if you are not really! If you are not real and honest with who you are, you will not be real and honest in transmitting to Christ, because you are He here on Earth and He is revealed through you!
The moment we reject a person or say that she is not worthy of our presence, we would be denying the faith.
If anyone says: I love God, and he hates his brother, he is a liar. For he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?
1 John 4:20
Then, we will develop our empathy, develop the abilities that Christ gave us, the gifts and talents, the arts, the music, the wisdom and expand the Kingdom here on Earth, without interest if other things come or not, and live what God has entrusted to us: to spread his love.
"NO ONE SEEKS THE OWN PROVECHO, BEFORE EACH ONE OF THE OTHER." (1 Corinthians 10.24)
In fact, the beatitudes presented by the Lord Jesus Christ are almost all focused on the human being and his well-being. Matthew chapter 5.
So, when the season of the beatitudes arrives, the love of God will spread to the crowds!
