I am so grateful that God loves us enough to send Jesus to die for our sins, that He sent the Holy Spirit to help me every minute of every day, that ALL my son's are forgiven...for they are many. Starting with feeling hurt which leads to anger or vengeance.
Usually, I am only thinking of myself when someone else hurts my feelings. If I had thought about what the other person was thinking or feeling, I would have realized quickly that the issue wasn't what was said but something else, and I could have helped perhaps instead of getting my feelings hurt.
The greatest commandments is to love the Lord our God with all our hearts, our souls, our minds. If we do this, the second greatest commandment makes sense, love your neighbor as yourself, because my neighbor is also loved by God. If I love my God, and He loves me...and He loves my neighbor, then I should love my neighbor also. Makes sense! Sounds easy right? Then why doesn't that happen all the time? How do I miss things?
So, Father, please help me to think about the other person first, not myself, so that I can show you I love you by loving others and I can show your love to them.
