There is nothing grander, nothing to which can fill my heart with more joy than the love God has for me. For there is nothing in me that deserves love, and the deeper you go, the less there is to love...YET! He has seen the depths of my heart and loves me still. So despite what others do, I shall see the unconditional love God has for me, and love them the same, to love like Christ and be more Christ like. Its like the story in the Bible of the man who was forgiven of his dept to the king by king, ought to not to forgive others of their dept to me? Not only that but many of their sins are directed towards God, are we to then take them as something that is something we have any power to forgive? They are not sins against us, but against God. The God who died to save them from those sins.

Are we not to show them the same love God has showed us, and in the long run show them as well in his sacrifice, by sharing in his death? Who are we to choose who should be saved, or who is worthy to love? It is one of my greatest weaknesses to love others, like Paul explains in the book of Romans "The Good I want to do I do not, but the evil I don't want to do I do." But he finishes it like so "Oh wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin" and again in Romans he says "In sin grace aboundeth, so then ought I to continue in sin that grace might abound? Of course not, for I have died to sin, why sin any longer?" Ought we to continue in the sin we have died to? No for we have died to it and ought to live in what we live in, which is the love and grace of God, and then show the Grace of God likewise. But how do we show the Grace of God, and the Love of God? Can we do it? For as explained earlier "What Good I would do I do not, and what evil I would not do I do." For in us(In the flesh) we find no good thing. So in us we find no power to do good. So it is not in us, but in God who we have been reborn in.
