OZBILJNI SAVJETI U SVEZI KRŠĆANSKE LJUBAVI PREMA BLIŽNJEM

Prepoznajte vaše slabosti i pokušajte ih (se) riješiti.... nemojte postati nestrpljivi (onda) kada bi sebe trebali postaviti u poziciju drugog čovjeka, i budite blagi/popustljivi.... nemojte povrijediti njegove osjećaje, i uzmite ozbiljno zapovijed ljubavi kada vaš bližnji treba vašu aktivnu pomoć ili riječi ohrabrenja.... Nemojte dati/omogućiti ni jedan razlog za raspravu već mekog srca/dobrostivo pokušajte pronaći dogovor, uzmite Moj primjer, Ja Koji sam svim ljudima prilazio mekog srca da bi ih pridobio. I stoga vi, također, trebate uvijek pokušati pridobiti srce druge osobe; vi ništa ne bi trebali ostaviti neurađeno što bi moglo probuditi ljubav, jer (pot)puno razumijevanje slabosti druge osobe sebe može manifestirati jedino u ljubavi. I stoga bi svaki od vas trebao to činiti drugome, ne ostavite ni jednu mogućnost neiskorištenu da ugodite sa nježnom riječi ili ljubavlju ispunjenom akcijom, jer ako izbjegnete povrijediti vašeg bližnjeg, ako mu date unutarnji mir, vi ćete činiti uistinu Kršćansko djelo ljubavi prema bližnjem koje će vam biti na dobrobit, jer vi ćete ga na taj način osnažiti fizički i duhovno. On sam će biti postavljen u stanje ljubavi, on će zauzvrat osjećati ljubav, i on neće zakazati/podbaciti da svoju ljubav sprovede u akciju. On će umanjiti svoju sebičnu ljubav....

Budite strpljivi i nježni, blagi i ponizni, i vaš život ce postati lakši, jer ljubav je najbolje oružje protiv mržnje/zlobe/neprijateljstva, a ljubav oprašta i trpi, ona daje i usrecuje, ona sjedinjuje srca, ona lijeci rane i nikad nece biti bez razumijevanja slabosti i grešaka/nedostataka drugih osoba i konacno ce ipak trijumfirati, jer ljubav je snaga koja postiže što god poželi.

AMEN

Serious admonitions about Christian neighbourly love....

Recognise your weaknesses and try to resolve them.... don't become impatient when you should put yourselves into another person's position, and be lenient.... don't hurt his feelings, and take the commandment of love seriously when your neighbour needs your active help or encouraging words.... Don't provide any reason for argument but kind-heartedly try to find agreement, take My example, I Who approached all people with a loving heart to win them over. And thus you, too, should always try to win the other person's heart; you should leave nothing undone that could awaken love, for full understanding of the other person's weaknesses can only manifest itself in love. And thus each one of you should do this to the other, leave no opportunity unused to please with a kind word or a loving action, for if you avoid hurting your neighbour, if you give him inner peace, you will do a truly Christian deed of neighbourly love which will benefit you, for you will thereby strengthen him physically and spiritually. He will be placed into a state of love himself, he will feel love in return, and he will not fail to put his love into action. He will lessen his selfish love....

Be patient and gentle, meek and humble, and your life will become easier, for love is the best weapon against animosity, and love forgives and endures, it gives and makes happy, it unites hearts, it heals wounds and will never be without understanding of the other person's weaknesses and faults and will finally triumph nevertheless, for love is strength which achieves whatever it wants....

Amen
