The Melodious

Learning How To Love By Mike Palmer 2006

I thought that I did ok; loving people I mean. Until I had to deal with someone who made me more than angry. I was justified in my anger, so it seemed. I prayed that God would release me from this person. God did. However, what I found quite astounding was that; When I no longer had to deal with this one, but chose to instead; That somehow love filled the gap and it broke the thing I had struggled with so long. Baggage from my youth. Now instead of seeing injustice, I see the miracle, And I can truly thank God for that painful experience. God said, “Love your enemies”. I finally understood that this means. Love everyone, from the ones you like to the ones who hate you.
