= //Two Feet of Love in Action Final Reflection // = Over the past couple of months we have been learning a lot about Two Feet of Love in Action. We have planned an essay, written an essay, and made Animoto video all showing how we walk humbly with God. Walking humbly with God is helping others in the community and learning and teaching about poverty and social justice not just for our benefit but foe the love of God. In learning about Two feet of love we have discussed what it is, why charity and social justice are apart of two feet of love, why they are important in our Catholic faith, and how we have personally given and received charity in social justice.

Two feet of Love in action is a ll about social justice, charity, and walking humbly with God. It teaches that our local communities have poverty and that if we just stand around nothing will change. The most important thing to do is to get active in the community and help those people in poverty and who need some help for us, the people who can give our time and who are better off. Social Justice is really what our world needs more of, in simple terms it is just being fair and distributing your blessings to help those who need more. Charity is part of social justice helping those who need help whether it is donating time, money, talents, or goods.

Charity and social justice are very important and there are many reason why we need them and why they are important. To me the most obvious reason social justice is important is because without it the poor will never be able to get back on their feet and out of poverty. social justice is giving these people who may have made a mistake a second chance and every one deserves a second chance. Without charity social justice is nothing because you can have the idea of social justice but without charity it is nothing and cant be made possible. Charity is important because it leads to social justice and helps those in poverty get out and thrive in our society. You can picture charity as one foot and social justice as the other in Two Feet of Love, without the other it is a lot hard to walk towards the goal of no poverty especially in the U.S., this is how they are really apart of Two Feet of Love in Action.

The most important thing to do is to serve God; charity and social justice really portray this is more than one way for sure. The best way to connect these topics to the Catholic faith is in the Corporal Works of Mercy. A reason why these topics connect to our faith is when we feed the hungry, clothe the naked, shelter the homeless, and give drink to the thirsty in our work at Metropolitan ministries these are four of the seven corporal works of mercy. Going to Metropolitan Ministries is something that not only helps those in need, but it is fun(especially with friends). It seems that no matter what your job is you feel filled with God's grace and you feel that what you are doing is important. Another example of how social justice can link back to our Catholic faith is when Jesus said, "It is more blessed to give than to receive", this is important to remember not only because it links to charity and social justice, but because Jesus said it himself. I think that this piece of Jesus's words is especially relevant at Metropolitan Ministries because like I said it is fun and you don't feel like its one of those thing that you want to get over with, you feel like coming back or staying longer because you recognize how blessed you are to be able to go to private school and have a roof over your head.  In in this essay we have discussed what it is, why charity and social justice are apart of two feet of love, why they are important in our Catholic faith, and how we have personally given and received charity in social justice. I have learned a lot in the past few months of studying Two Feet of Love in Action and feel that I have become a better person because of it.
