The first commandment of God being to love God with all our heart, mind, soul and strength, the second commandment is:
« Love your neighbor as yourself. »(Matthew 22:39)

In reality, nothing is difficult than to love all of God’s children without exception, as we love ourselves, because some are hard to love.
It is hard or almost impossible to love people who have hurt us and who continue to hurt us, or people who are unfaithful to us, brutal, violent, mean, and people who obviously hate us.
However, we are obliged to love them as they are because, in principle, loving others is a requirement and not an option.
Although it is hard to love some people, God obliges us to love them.
And we just have to decide to love them as they are and to forgive them if they have offended us. If today we decide to love those whom we do not love and to forgive those who have wronged us, the feelings of love towards all, without exception, will eventually follow.
« Abound in love to one another. »(1 Thessalonians 3:12)
God loves to see all his children love each other.

PRAYER:
Our Father who art in heaven, give us strength and courage to love others, especially those we find hard to love.
It is in the precious name of your son Jesus Christ that we pray, Amen.

Le premier commandement de Dieu étant celui d’aimer Dieu de tout notre coeur, notre esprit, de toute notre âme et de toutes nos forces, le deuxième commandement est:
« Tu aimeras ton prochain comme toi-même. »(Matthieu 22:39)

En réalité, rien n’est difficile qu’aimer tous les enfants de Dieu sans exception, comme nous nous aimons nous-mêmes, car certains sont difficiles à aimer.
Il est difficile ou quasiment impossible d’aimer des personnes qui nous ont blessés et qui continuent de nous blesser, ou des personnes qui nous sont infidèles, brutales, violentes, méchantes, et des personnes qui, manifestement nous détestent.
Toutefois, nous sommes obligés de les aimer tels qu’elles sont parce que, en principe, aimer les autres est une exigence et non pas une option.
Quoiqu’il soit difficile d’aimer certaines personnes, Dieu nous oblige des les aimer.
Et il nous suffit de décider de les aimer tels qu’elles sont et de les pardonner si elles nous ont offensés. Si, dès aujourd’hui nous décidons d’aimer ceux que nous n’aimions pas et de pardonner ceux qui nous ont offensés, les sentiments d’amour envers tous, sans exceptions, finiront par suivre.
« Aimez-vous les uns les autres. »(1 Thessaloniciens 3:12)
Dieu aime voir tous ses enfants s’aimer.

PRIÈRE:
Notre Père qui êtes aux cieux, donnez-nous la force et le courage d’aimer les autres, et surtout ceux que nous trouvons difficiles à aimer.
C’est dans le nom précieux de votre fils Jésus-Christ que nous prions, Amen.

Amri ya kwanza ya Mungu ni kumpenda Mungu kwa moyo, akili, roho na nguvu zote, amri ya pili ni:
« Mpende jirani yako kama nafsi yako. »(Mathayo 22:39)

Kwa kweli, hakuna jambo gumu kuliko kuwapenda watoto wote wa Mungu bila ubaguzi, kama tunavyojipenda wenyewe, kwa sababu wengine ni wagumu kuwapenda.
Ni vigumu au karibu haiwezekani kuwapenda watu ambao wametuumiza na wanaoendelea kutuumiza, au watu wasio waaminifu kwetu, wakatili, wajeuri, wabaya, na watu ambao ni wazi wanatuchukia.
Hata hivyo, tunalazimika kuwapenda jinsi walivyo kwa sababu, kimsingi, kuwapenda wengine ni takwa na si chaguo.
Ingawa ni vigumu kuwapenda watu fulani, Mungu anatulazimisha kuwapenda.
Na tunapaswa tu kuamua kuwapenda jinsi walivyo na kuwasamehe ikiwa wametukosea. Ikiwa leo tunaamua kuwapenda wale ambao hatuwapendi na kuwasamehe wale ambao wametukosea, hisia za upendo kwa wote, bila ubaguzi, hatimaye zitafuata.
« Bwana na awaongeze na kuwazidisha katika upendo, ninyi kwa ninyi, na kwa watu wote. »(1 Wathesalonike 3:12)
Mungu anapenda kuona watoto wake wote wakipendana.

OMBI:
Baba yetu uliye mbinguni, utupe nguvu na ujasiri wa kuwapenda wengine, hasa wale ambao ni vigumu kuwapenda.
Ni katika jina la thamani la mwanao Yesu Kristo tunaomba, Amina.

The word of God tells us that if we love God, others must absolutely see our love of God by our loving attitude towards the people around us.

« If anyone says, « I love God, » yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. »(1 John 4:20)

How dare we then pretend to love the God we have never seen when we distrust our own brothers and sisters, our neighbors or our co-workers?
How dare we claim to love God when we hate his children because of their ethnic, religious or political affiliations?
Let’s stop lying, we don’t love God if we don’t love his children.

PRAYER:
Our Father who art in heaven, grant us to sincerely love your children.
It is in the precious name of your son Jesus Christ that we pray, Amen.

La parole de Dieu nous dit que si nous aimons Dieu, les autres doivent absolument voir notre amour de Dieu par notre attitude aimante envers les gens autour de nous.

« Si quelqu’un dit: J’aime Dieu, et qu’il haïsse son frère, c’est un menteur; car celui qui n’aime pas son frère qu’il voit, comment peut-il aimer Dieu qu’il ne voit pas? »(1 Jean 4:20)

Comment osons-nous alors prétendre aimer Dieu que nous n’avons jamais vu alors que nous nous méfions de nos propres frères et soeurs, de nos voisins ou de nos collègues?
Comment osons-nous prétendre aimer Dieu alors que nous haïssons ses enfants à cause de leurs appartenances ethniques, religieuses ou politiques?
Cessons de mentir, nous n’aimons pas Dieu si nous n’aimons pas ses enfants.

PRIÈRE:
Notre Père qui êtes aux cieux, donnez-nous d’aimer sincèrement vos enfants.
C’est dans le nom précieux de votre fils Jésus-Christ que nous prions, Amen.

Neno la Mungu linatuambia kwamba ikiwa tunampenda Mungu, wengine lazima waone upendo wetu kwa Mungu kwa mtazamo wetu wa upendo kwa watu wanaotuzunguka.

« Mtu akisema, Nampenda Mungu, naye anamchukia ndugu yake, ni mwongo; kwa maana asiyempenda ndugu yake ambaye amemwona, hawezi kumpenda Mungu ambaye hakumwona. »(1 Yohana 4:20)

Je, tunathubutu vipi basi kujifanya tunampenda Mungu ambaye hatujawahi kuona wakati tukiwapuuza ndugu na dada zetu wenyewe, majirani zetu au wafanyakazi wenzetu?
Je, tunawezaje kuthubutu kudai kumpenda Mungu wakati tunawachukia watoto wake kwa sababu ya misimamo yao ya kikabila, kidini au kisiasa?
Tuache uongo, hatumpendi Mungu ikiwa hatuwapendi watoto wake.

OMBI:
Baba yetu uliye mbinguni, utujalie kuwapenda watoto wako kwa dhati.
Ni katika jina la thamani la mwanao Yesu Kristo tunaomba, Amina.
