Word of Life ... but don't try this yourself?

This month's Word of Life is "He loved his own in the world, and he loved them to the end” (Jn 13:1).

As part of her commentary on these words of Scripture, first written as a Word of Life in April 1981, Chiara Lubich tells the story of a young girl who engaged in a bit of "marriage counselling" with her friend's mother. The story is quite striking .... but I am not sure I would advise anyone to try it themselves!
