What sense does the Word of God have that commands to love your neighbor as yourself? There is no one who inflicts harm or pain on himself if it is not due to illness. Each one seeks the good for himself and the way to satisfy his needs and tastes. So everyone wants the best for himself. Well, the measure is set for the best. That is the measure that God orders to use with our neighbors. In this way, brothers must always be given the best of oneself so that they can be loved with the same measure with which each person loves himself. The best of oneself means that one must give generously, with magnanimity, with detachment, seeking the good in all things. Loving like this is how you obtain peace of mind and the joy of knowing yourself first loved by God. Because whoever loves openly and generously is giving all the wealth he receives from God.

Let us put an abundant measure in our love so that we can give a lot, give everything.
