Love and our Neighbor

If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him? 1 John 3:17

How we love? Are we loving only those who agree with us and love us? Where is my neighbor who has no shelter and home, no one taking care of? We who have received so much from our Lord Jesus Christ, are we seeing the need of our neighbor or are we just shutting our eyes without praying: what I can do for my neighbor? God's Word says that we should take care of those who are in need, are we following our God's words? According to John we can repent and receive forgiveness from our Heavenly Farther, because of Jesus Christ our Lord, who has fulfilled all Scriptures of God and who can give us the Holy Spirit (Joh 3:16-21; 1 John 3:16-24). This is Love, our Lord Jesus Christ, and we love, because He has first loved us:).
