But then I happened to think of some of the people that their personality might clash with mine or someone that seems immature and self-centered, am I to love and seek the best for them as well? The answer is yes, that person that might be really hard for us to endure to be around or that every time we are around them we walk away frustrated and maybe upset, we are to love them and seek the best for them. We are to treat them as we would the person that has the best attitude and is easy to love. It finishes the verse by saying that anyone who chooses to love is born of God and knows God, that doesn\u2019t mean being selective in who we love but that we love everyone. There is times where that person(s) are living in sin and aren\u2019t even close to in a relationship with God where we may justify to not love them, but remember, we are to love the sinner, just as Jesus did\u2026we can still hate the sin but love the person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOur job is the love others without stopping to inquire whether or not they are worthy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cLoving others always costs us something and requires effort. And you have to decide to do it on purpose. You can\u2019t wait for a feeling to motivate you.\u201d &nbsp;-Joyce Meyer<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Dad Joke of the Day:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Johnny: What did one eye say to the other?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Timmy: I dunno, what?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Johnny: Between you and me, something smells.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Have a great Tuesday!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good Morning!
