Holy Thursday: A Revolution of Love

What does it truly mean to love others “to the end,” as Jesus did at the Last Supper? In this meditation, Fr. Luke Mata reflects on Holy Thursday as the moment Jesus reveals the full extent of divine love—through the washing of the apostles’ feet, the institution of the Eucharist, and the commandment to love as He loves. He emphasizes that this love is not abstract but radically practical, calling for humility, self-gift, forgiveness, and service in everyday relationships. The Eucharist becomes both the source and strength for this way of living, since such self-giving love is impossible on our own. Ultimately, Fr. Luke presents Jesus’ example as a “revolution of love” that begins in small, personal acts and has the power to transform the world.
