When it’s hard to love …
One of my deepest desires has been to have the kind of love that God has – all-encompassing, not prejudiced and unspoiled by human expectations. It’s near-impossible (not impossible) but I’ve been trying in my own little ways to ensure that there are fewer people I dislike. And that’s why this important lesson that I learnt recently, makes a world of difference.
I had been having some tough times with an erstwhile friend who had gone all out to betray me. I told myself that I would simply cut her out of my life. And yet, deep down, I knew it was wrong. And one day, I asked God for help. I knew I had tried my best but there were no results.
It was amazing! Within just a week of praying about it, I found that I was able to relate to her. In fact, I met her recently and we had a great time. This would have been impossible a week ago! Gone were those feelings of anger, betrayal and helplessness. I know I have been healed supernaturally. Of course, I feel as light as a cloud and as chirpy as a bird in spring.
Lesson 1: Take it to the Lord!
Lesson 2: It’s not worth holding on to negativity when you can find freedom by just asking.
Lesson 3: God cares about these little things too! (Don’t forget, He sees a sparrow fall!)

There is this ONE person in my life that I find very hard to love because of what they do. One day the thought went through my mind.. Standing before the Lord on judgement day, and him saying to me... "Janie I am really disappointed in you, because you were the only one who could have reached that person." So happy that you are friends again, feels great! Christian Love, Janie Marie
