9th Daily Tip Valentine's Day

Luke 6:32

 "Do you think you deserve credit
 merely for loving those who love you?
 Even the sinners do that!

To me this is a powerful question? I know I am good at loving those who love me.. but am I really any good at loving those who don't love me??   Am I even trying to love someone who doesn't love me? It is easy for some to write someone off, because of what they are doing now, their past, their position, and for who they are. Catch the word easy in that statement. That's too easy. I don' t know about you, but I know that I am willing to see them the way God sees them. Its hard. I still cursed someone underneath my breath the other day.. but I caught myself.. this loving your enemy thing isn't happening overnight for me.. its hard..

Ain't this great? While I am trying to write this blog.. the enemy (Satan) came barging through.. and I about went off.. and I did.. one of the people that I can't stand just made me mad.. and here I am trying to blog about loving our enemies... I am seething with anger... trying to love someone in spite of their faults.. it hurts trying to love people that could give less than a damn about you.. but that's alright ... keep walking on all over me.. keep trying me.. cause when you hurt me, you hurt Jesus... and I am still going to try.



I know this blog went in a totally different direction.. but I said I would open up my life.. and literally when I was in the middle of this blog, I had to stop, and go to a place that I no longer belong to.. trying to love when someone else doesn't.

Until next time. I definitely need a pat on the back, because I just messed up.

God bless.  Crystal
