Loving others
9:20 AMOne of the things that we have really been learning on this journey that God has set us on is that we haven’t been loving the people God has placed in our path like we should. There are so many people around us that we have sort of looked down on because they didn’t do what we ‘knew’ they should do, or we wished they wouldn’t always come to us with their problems. However, this book has set us on the path to loving everyone that comes our way with a true biblical love from the inside out, not just on the outside.
I don’t know about you, but I have really struggled with loving people from my heart. Oh, I can pretend with the best of them that I love them, and I’m having a good time, but we should love everyone of the people that walk in our life like Christ would. From our friends at church, to that young girl that walked in even though she is wearing immodest clothing and flirting with the boys. We are to love our brothers and sisters and the girl who is doing community service.
I have only just begun on this journey to truly loving others as Christ would love them, but I would love it if you joined me.

You are so right Sarah! And it is very hard for me to really reach out and love others. That is something I have been convicted of lately as well. Thanks for sharing that! =:)
