"However, we cannot love God with charity, since He deserves our love; thus, to be truly like Him in perfect charity, God gave us our neighbors whom we can love as God loves us..."

I have not thought of that and it is going to give me something great to contemplate and share.

One of the great insights given by Christ to St. Catherine. It changed my understanding of charity as divinization, and how to love difficult people as God loves us sinners.

This is a powerful reflection. You said, Charity is the emptying of self for the good of the other. And true charity thus requires sacrifice. These were good words for me to hear today. Thank you
