LOVING EACH DAY
-----------------
If you say you hate one person, you also have to hate
others. If you shut off love to one person, you have also
shut it off to somebody else. That someone else is usually
yourself because when we shut off to anyone "out there," we
usually shut off inside of us.
As Jesus said, "When you have done it to the least of these,
you have done it unto me" (Matthew 25:40). So why shut off
anyone, hurt anyone, or hate anyone and then think you can
love your wife or husband? No, you carry home with you that
same hate towards the other person. When you tell your
spouse about it, the spouse feels your hate and has to deal
with it, plus your spouse may have to deal with feelings of
sadness over what someone else is doing to you.
You cannot allow anything to stand in the way of your
loving.
