Love your family. Love your friends. Love your roommate who doesn't clean. Love your boring professor. Love the liars. Love the cheaters. Love those who believe differently from you. Love those with different lifestyles. Love the friends who betray you. Love your neighbors. Love strangers. Love kids. Loves adults. Love what you have. Love your trials. Love your love (I wish). Love the poor, the rich, the clean, the dirty. Love the homeless. Love the people who drive you crazy. All you need is love.
It's about attitude and its about love. Even when someone makes decisions you'd never consider or uses words that offend, LOVE them. Judgement and punishment is not up to us, it's up the Lord and even our PERFECT Lord loves all.
We are looking through unclean windows and judging with unclean hands.
I don't think our society has a problem with loving our family and friends... after all, it's easy to love the people that love us. It's the ones that aren't "easy" to love that seem even more important to love.
Matthew 5:44 "But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;"
Even written on a post in Hawaii. |
If God can love me after all of my mistakes and imperfections... and not only love me, but HELP me and comfort me no matter what I do... then I should show the same love.
I will carry that love with me and "write His name upon my heart."
Love is all we need. We express it through words, actions, service... a smile.
Just love always.
I definitely LOVE your blog... Among other things :)
