"But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,...For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have?"
Who are you actively loving today? Are you loving people who are confused by it? Can you get past their "sinful nature" to love the people God created? If not, are you better with your own sinful nature? Is your love conditional? These are questions that I've been asking myself lately. Do they know we are Christians by our love? From what I've heard, "they" don't. Yet! It all starts with love. I seem to not be able to find when we can stop loving or when we are excused from loving someone. Hmmmm. Tough sometimes!
Just a glimpse into my heart lately.

Ouch! ouch! Melissa, you are convicting me!
If you pray that God will help us love the unloveable.....is that like "praying for patience"? Yikes!
All kidding aside, I am thankful you are sensitive to what the Lord is saying to you. We all should be.
I see him standing there in a cute iniform, but I don't see any work getting done!
