Sometimes I feel it:
My love for people getting cold. People can sometimes make it difficult to love, to be vulnerable, and to return blessing for insult.
Jesus died so that people in the world would not perish but have everlasting life. He loved even His enemies. When I think on this carefully, my love for others returns.
The Bible says do not return evil for evil but defeat evil by doing good.
On the internet, its a lot easier to be cold and impersonal towards others. I hope that we can remember to let our lights shine even online.
But I wonder if any of you struggle with love growing cold for people? How do you know, and then how do you deal with it?
I remember when I first became a Christian, I could barely contain the love I felt. I realized everyone around me was made in God's image.
I want to keep that spark alive. And love even when its tough.
