Theodore Cardinal McCarrick     Reach Out To Your Neighbor by Theodore Cardinal McCarrick

   We speak of making a difference in the world, and every one of you in your heart of hearts is hoping that you will find your way to do that. Whatever it is, it must be something which reaches out to the poor, the needy, to the newcomer, the stranger, to the confused and to those who need help. If you want to be fully human and fully alive, you have to be aware of your neighbor and your neighbor's needs. You have to be willing to reach out to that neighbor in love, in grace and in generosity.

   Never become provincial. Never become isolationists. Never become so wrapped up in your own self that you become unaware of the challenges and greatness and wonder of the rest of the world. Change the world. Don't forget the poor. Don't forget that what you do affects every corner of this globe. Don't forget that perhaps the greatest lesson is that God watches us and loves us and reaches out into our lives to make a difference, so that you and I may make a difference too.
