Feed My Sheep

When Jesus asked Peter if he loved him, (cf. Jn 21: 15) he was asking us as well.  Three times he asked, and three times Peter protested that he did.  And in response, Jesus told him to feed his sheep.  And the same goes for us.  We love, and Jesus delights in giving us the best gifts possible but at the same time, these gifts are not just for us, but for others who hunger and need to be fed.  Our commission is to love and to give our love, whatever we have totally, without counting the cost to all who come into our lives.  Seems simple, but demands a "death to self" a willingness to put aside our plans, our time, our material goods, for the sake of the other.  Only the love of Jesus can make this possible.  And it's not just a one time deal, but for life.
Do you love me?  Feed my sheep.
