I’m back from retreat. And I think the most important thing I learned was that Christ does not discriminate his love between his enemies and his friends. I knew this before but I don’t think I ever thought it should apply to me.
“Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.” Luke 6:27-28
I’m mad at her.
I’m cold to her.
I hate her.
I say disgusting things about her.
I’m jealous of her.
I’m angry towards her.
I have bad feelings for her.
but..
I know I have no reason to be mad at her.
I have no reason to be cold to her.
I have no reason to hate her and say disgusting things about her.
I have no reason to be jealous of her.
I have no reason to feel anger towards her.
I have no reason to feel anything bad at all.
She doesn’t hate me, she hasn’t cursed me, she hasn’t mistreated me (so i definitely dont have a reason to hate her). I guess I’m pouring out all my feelings on her.
I need to forgive. I need to forget. I need to love. I need to remind myself that it’s okay.
It’s really hard. Because I still think about it. I still get hurt from it. I still want to cry about it.
Forgive&forget. Love&move on.
