Day Two

Little Children, let us not love merely in theory or in speech but in deed and in truth, in practice and in sincerity
1 John 3:18

This is my struggle. Actually showing the love in practice and in deed even when I would rather not. Clearly this passage shows that this is a commandment of the L-rd and therefore something we must do regardless of what we want to do. I am just glad that G-d is so merciful because it is so hard for me to want to show love for certain people.

I guess if I am honest with myself it is because there are some people that I honestly don't like. I don't like the actions they take, I don't like their behaviors or words or deeds. I would rather not have interactions with them but if I have to I do it with a grumbling spirit.

I am praying and meditating on the scriptures that I share here in hopes of changing my heart. I will let you know.
