The response of Jesus is taken from the Shema

What is this Shema

This is the Creed of the Jews
They profess their faith in the ONE GOD – monotheism
Commanded to love God with all their heart, mind, soul, and strength
This remains valid for us, in fact Jesus used it to answer the question
What is new is that – he equated love of God to love of neighbor
Love is the most used and abused Word today
Nafafascinate kita hit mga love stories, mga heroic deeds hit lovers
“I Love you” pero diri man love,,infatuation, sometimes lust la

Why are we alive, we exist because somebody loved us..this love brought us to life
Waray iba nga rason – GUGMA
1 Jn 4:8 God is Love
It is only by loving that we will fulfill our purpose in life
We are called to love in turn, to love God in return
St There: Love is repaid by love alone
Pero mayda kita problema: Makuri mainternalize nga love kita hit Ginoo
Makuri usahay tumuod nga love kit ani God
Because diri klaro ha aton experience
Makuri madiskubrehan it love ni God especially for a person with pain and suffering undergone

Before this commandment to love God and nieghbor: nakikita naton it aton ka mga kulelat
I hope nga for almost all of you nga nagstay dinhi ha seminary, babad ha formation
nakarealize kamo nga impossible higugmaon it Dyos ngan it igkasitawo
Whenever nagseseryoso na kita..nabalik la ghapon kita hit aton dati nga style
that we really cannot love..because of the slavery to sin in us.
Law for us..is equals to frustration because we cannot fulfill it as it should be fulfilled
Ginsisidngan nga study—diri nagstudy
Sidngan nga ayaw aringa----magiinaringasa lugod
Pangaturog----nagmiminata
Pagmata---nagkikinaturog lugod
Pangaon---diri nakaon
Nakaon lugod kon diri igkaraon
Ano gud! Kalipong ha ulo

Balit brothers..we have to accept that truth that we are failures

Only jesus Christ was able to fulfill this commandment as it should be done, perfectly
By the power his death and resurrection, he has given us this power to love as he loved
In Christ, We can see our brother not anymore as an enemy, but somebody to be cared for,
And what is the most perfect kind of love – agape
sacrificial love, unconditional love – we can even give up our life for our brothers
This is the kind of love that the Lord is giving to us in the sacraments
A priest/seminarian is a person with a big heart, for everyone
Importante nga iton padi – sensitive hiya han pagtrabaho han gugma han Dyos dida ha iya
kinabuhi
He looks at his own life story as a love story between him and God
Our relationship with God has to transcend the academic level
it must God down to the affective level, to the heart really
everything is mechanical
if God is not the center of our seminary experience..
hino it magigin sentro pwde hi kita -self centered – interests
we will use others for our own motives and interests

This zEucharist is a celebration of love

An Anak han tawo iginhahalad an iya kalugaringon and iya nature
para ha aton nga magpakasasala, mga bungalos, mga grateful
Truly makafulfill kita hini ng Shema:

Ano it siring ni St. John letter:

We know that we have passed from death to life because we love the brothers…
