Have you ever looked at someone with such intense hatred that it felt like their very existence was a stain on the world? Their presence feels heavy, draining every ounce of energy you have, and their words cut deep, like venom seeping into your mind and soul.
They seem like a robber of peace and joy, their actions and attitudes leaving destruction in their wake. You can’t fathom how anyone could be so corrupted, and you wonder if the world would truly be better without them.
Then you remember:
• They were born with a sinful nature, just like you.
• God loves them as much as He loves everyone else.
• They are a lost soul in need of grace and redemption.
These truths are what give me the patience and strength to renew my love for someone like that each day.
