Those are pretty strong words. Very few of us know how we would react when faced with extreme risk or danger. While the 20th Century was the most violent in history, the 21st Century brings us a new terror in a wave of personal and senseless violence as we saw yesterday. But also we see, as we did in the 20th century, so many people who act with extreme love and kindness. Ordinary people who give or risk their lives for others. Ordinary people like you and me. We show that God lives within each and every one of us in the form of immense love. A true love that does not ask for anything in return. A love that gives from the depths of our soul. Let us pray for all of those who have lost loved ones and all of those who are suffering and for all of those who risked their own lives to help a brother in need.
