Proactive love

"You shall love your neighbor as yourself. Love does not evil to the neighbor; hence, love is the fulfillment of the law." (Romans 13: 9-10)

When I think of sins against love of my neighbor, I think of sins of commission and sins of omission. It is often the sins of omission that are most neglected. Love does no evil. True love should not just avoid evil but should be proactive.

O Holy Spirit, you are the principle of love. Fill us with your love. Teach us how to love. Love through us.
