Short Reflections on Loving the People Around Us

Writings by Chiara Lubich

The wisdom of this collection is remarkable. It is mystical and practical at the same time. Lubich says, “We can’t go to God alone, but we must go to him with our brothers and sisters, since he is the Father of us all.” The neighbor is a necessity if we are to have mutual love, the profound love that is receptive to the grace of unity. The book sends you forth with a heart eager to love as Jesus loved.
