LOVING SELFLESSLY

Allow me to share with the homily of the priest a while ago, it was about the significant of the Holy Cross, at my twenty five years of existence, i never even bothered to ask to my parents what is the correct way of signing the cross, enough that i see my lola and my mom doing it, then i did it in my own way. Nonethless, one significant thing ive learned from the priest was the correct way of doing the signing of the cross,i couldnt help but smile because i myself seems to be so ignorant that i even flaunt on doing it at public, what i dont know is that im doing the wrong way, at last now i knew. Second thing, the priest emphasize was about LOVING SELFLESSLY, indeed its quite easier said than done.How could an ordinary human being love his neighbor and foregtiing his self, i guess none could do that. Only God. That is why many failed in LOVE because we use to create standards on what should be done and what should not. We base our standards on the give and take policy, seldom we base it on give and give. There is always the self factor in the picture. Who could afford to give his own self for the sake of others? Who could afford to take the pain without thinking of revenge? Who could afford to be kind when youre at the midst of being insulted? Who could afford to forgive even amidst trials and shortcomings? Who? but JESUS alone.
