don't be troubled

"Owe no one anything except to love one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law"- Romans 13:8

do you know how hard it is to love one another when you are hurt? do you know how hard it is to love one another when they are dying? do you know how hard it is to love one another when you feel that love can't coexist with the emotions of dislike or even hatred for your enemy or kin? lets face it, it is very hard.

Do you know how hard it was and is to love a sinner? think about it from God's perspective...to love someone who despite how much good they can do has the sin nature in them.

love is very powerful. it says in Proverbs 10:12 "Hatred stirs up dissension but love covers all sins". it was God's love that overcame his hatred for our nature. God loves us but he hates whats in us, if only we submit to His will, His love will truly flow through us. thats what forgiveness is, the power to overcome with love, its that grace the covers us, peace that surrounds us , and love that fills us.

God i ask for a new seed to be planted in us. A seed entailed with the finest features of what love brings. I pray that we may stand firm and hold steadfast to your love...the innumerable measure, the willing flow of water that fills all spaces of the heart and soul overpowering the mind's clout. God help us to change our ways. Its in Jesus name where all things are made possible. Amen
