To love, Christians must do as God does: not expect to be loved, but love “first.”

The first quality of Christian love is to love everyone.

Using language that is quite familiar today, we can say that love knows “no form of discrimination.”

If we have the heart of a mother or, more precisely, if we set out to have the heart of the Mother par excellence: Mary, we will always be ready to love.

To be Christian, we must love our neighbor now. So not a platonic love, not an ideal love: active love.
