Recently i have heard a fair bit of talk about people who are hard to love - family, friends, lovers, work colleagues, church people, strangers. Why the heck does God put these people in our lives. Being a christian would be easy without these people!
I am learning that He wants me to love - and make a difference. NOT to talk about how unlovely they are. To show them the grace, love and forgiveness that Jesus has shown me.
So whether it be my wife, my Dad, my boss, my twin, "mature" christians - i know I gotta stop thinking "why me" and just start loving. Who knows - it may be the difference in that person's life that turns them to Jesus.
If I am going to "be salt" I gotta start being salty.
