just a thought...

alright, so today is sunday.

this morning i was in church, and the pastor said something that really caught my attention. Ive heard it before many times but today it got to me.

"you only love God as much as the person you like least" he was referring to the fact that Gods will in our lives is to love Him, and also love people the way he loves them.

i dont know about you guys but im sure we can all think of at least one person were not that fond of. for me, this person has never striked me as someone i would get along with. so you could say that i really dislike them. which makes me heartbroken to think that i only love God as much as this person. i cant help but try to figure out ways to get over my problem with them.

sometimes its hard to view people as children of God, and have a heart for them when they just arent someone u want to be around...I honestly think that im going to need the Big Mans help on this one. which is ok since he is almighty!

it will require some effort and be difficult at times but ive decided that the next time i see this person i will be nothing but friendly and caring towards them. and I will pray for strength to not only tolerate but learn to embrace this person. so youre prayers will be useful too!

i know we all have people like this in our lives, so i encourage you to befriend an enemy!
