Jesus said: ‘Freely you have received, freely give.’ Most people will think: ‘Give freely? How unrealistic!’ And yet, for those who take the trouble to understand the deeper meaning of these words, nothing is more logical. Our heavenly Father has showered us with his blessings, beginning with our physical body and all its possibilities, as well as all the mental and spiritual faculties we can freely use. And he has also given us the whole universe, which surrounds us with its beauty and riches. What have we paid him for all of this? Nothing. And he asks nothing of us, only that we not destroy this richness and beauty or seize it for ourselves, and above all that we learn to use what we have to help our fellow brothers and sisters.
