This is “Holy Week.”  It is a week when we, in the church celebrate Maundy Thursday (7PM in the chapel) Good Friday (NO service at RHPC).  Maundy means: “Commandment.”  On this night we remember that Jesus commanded his disciples to “love one another as I have loved you.”   That is quite a charge for us.  Loving is not always easy.

It’s one thing to love a family member or a good friend, but to try to love someone who doesn’t really even like you, well, that’s hard.  That’s more than hard, and yet, that’s what Jesus commanded those who would follow him to do.

As I think about it, to love is to seek what is best for the other person, without first considering what is best for you (or me).  We usually look out for our own interests first, and once those are taken care of, we may consider the needs of others, and whether or not we can help them.

Some think it’s foolish.  But for those who believe, “It is the power of God unto salvation.”  We demonstrate love by caring for those who have no voice;the poor, and those on the fringe of our society.  Caring for them is not very popular in our nation today, but if we would follow the commands of Christ, caring for them; standing with them; seeking the best for them–not merely a “hand out” but seeking ways to give them a hand up. To me that’s what Christ’s death on the cross is all about.

Grace and Peace,
