Jesus Chose Us

In our fervor to develop our relationship with Jesus, we often act as if the effort must come from us, forgetting that he chose us (Jn 12: 16).  We don't have to be the one reaching out to him all the time. Our call is to allow Jesus to to come into our lives, in his time and in his way.  We can be more effective instruments when we are flexible responders to his love.  John, as an old man, legend has it,  when asked to elaborate on the teachings of Jesus, would simply repeat: "Love one another."  That's what it's all about..If Jesus has chosen us, then we let his love flow with all its power through our personalities, talents, and ability to love, and become far more effective instruments of his love than if it all came from and depended on us.  Jesus, love me, fill me with you love and let it flow naturally from me to all I meet.
