Am I A Friend?

We often reference that verse when we are thinking of how other people don’t/do love us. What about how we love others? I am being so challenged right now about my love towards others. It is easy to love people when everything is peachy. Male or female. But what about when you are on the verge of letting go? What about when you never want to talk to them again? What about when your feelings have been hurt? My flesh says, “Forget them”. But my heart says no love again like GOD loves (1 Peter 3:11). Don’t let go (Gal 6:9). Don’t do like you used to (2 Cor 5:17). Don’t shut down (1 Corinthians 13:7). Love at all times (James 3:15-17). When it hurts and when it feels good (1 Corinthians 13:5). Love isn’t contingent upon your emotional state (2 Corinthians 6:3-6). Love is intentional (1 John 4:18). Instead, I am choosing to trust (Ephesians 4:3) that God will heal me from whatever wounds I inflict and longsuffer with those that are my friends because A Friend Loves At All Times (Proverbs 17:17).

How you treat others exposes your view of God.The higher you view God, the more respect you show TO EVERYONE! 1 Pet.2:17- @RickWarren

What about you?
