"Charity rejoices in the truth (1 Cor 13:6). All people feel the interior impulse to love authentically. Love and truth never abandon them completely, because these are the vocations planted in the heart and mind of every human person.
The search for love and truth is purified and liberated by Jesus Christ from the impoverishment that our humanity brings to it, and he reveals to us in all it's fullness the initiative of love and the plan of true life that God has planned for us.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
God has put his law in everyone's heart. Purified by Christ, the impulse to love is brought supernaturally to it's full potential, if we are so willing to love. It requires truth as it's guide and shield. Our love is always bound by truth even as the earth is bound by the pull of the sun. The two belong to each other; gifts given to all by the Father.

The debate over whether Jesus had brothers, or as can be proven linguistically only cousins, is one of the hallmark differences in Catholic vs. Protestant bible interpretation. Whatever you believe about that it is clear that Christ elevates the faithful to a very high and privileged place.
Jesus tells the disciples that those who do GOD'S will are His brothers, sisters, and even HIS Mother! The blessed Virgin from the earliest time has been honored and adored by her son's Church. And Christ himself plces us with her.
St. Francis expresses this concept beautifully saying, "oh how happy are they...The sons, spouses, brothers, and mothers of our Lord Jesus Christ.
We are spouses whben by the Holy Spirit the faithful soul is united with Christ, brothers to him when we fulfill the will of our Father in heaven, and mothers when we carry him in our heart and body through divine love and a pure conscience. giving birth to him through a holy life."
