SUMMARY:7th Sunday in Ordinary Time
DESCRIPTION:Love Your Enemies1\nA Commentary by Walter Hilton \nWhen love acts in the soul it does so wisely and gently\, for it has great power\nto kill anger and envy\, and all the passions of wrath and melancholy\, and it brings\ninto the soul the virtues of patience\, gentleness\, peaceableness\, and friendliness to\none’s neighbor. People guided only by their own reason find it very hard to be\npatient\, peaceful\, sweet-tempered and charitable to their neighbors when they treat\nthem badly and wrong them. But true lovers of Jesus have no great difficulty in\nenduring all this\, because love fights for them and kills such movements of wrath\nand melancholy with amazing ease. Through the spiritual sight of Jesus it makes\nthe souls of such people so much at ease and so peaceful\, so ready to endure and so\nconformed to God\, that if they are despised and disregarded by others\, or suffer\ninjustice or injury\, shame or ill-treatment\, they pay no attention. They are not\ngreatly disturbed by these things and will not allow themselves to be\, for then they\nwould lose the comfort they feel in their souls\, and that they are unwilling to do.\nThey can more easily forget all the wrong that is done them than others can forgive\nit even when asked for forgiveness. They would rather forget than forgive\, for that\nseems easier to them. \nAnd it is love that does all this\, for love opens the eye of the soul to the sight\nof Jesus\, and confirms it in the pleasure and contentment of the love that comes\nfrom that sight. It comforts the soul so much that it is quite indifferent to what\nothers do against it. The greatest harm that could befall such people would be to\nlose the spiritual sight of Jesus\, and they would therefore suffer all other injuries\nthan that one alone. \nWhen true lovers of Jesus suffer harm from their neighbors\, they are so\nstrengthened by the grace of the Holy Spirit and are made so truly humble\, so\npatient\, and so peaceable\, that they retain their humility no matter what harm or\ninjury is inflicted on them. They do not despise their neighbors or judge them\, but\nthey pray for them in their hearts\, and feel more pity and compassion for them than\nfor others who never harmed them\, and in fact they love them better\, and more\nfervently desire their salvation\, because they see that they will have so much\nspiritual profit from their neighbors’ deeds\, though this was never their intention.\nBut this love and this humility\, which are beyond human nature\, come only from\nthe Holy Spirit to those whom he makes true lovers of Jesus. \n1 Journey with the Fathers: Commentaries on the Sunday Gospels – Year A.
