". . . Even in times when I was not entirely likable, I would remain lovable.
Recently, I have come to understand this more deeply. The most
transformational experiences of love in my life occur during the times
when I am weak, when I am broken, and when I don't feel like enough.
That is when I have known love 'just because.' There is something in us
that is lovable, and it cannot be wiped away, covered up, or erased.
What could this be?"
In
a recent commentary, Father Joe Newman,
OSFS, reflected on how there is always something of God in our neighbor, which means there is something lovable in him/her.
