I Do Not Have the Capacity to Love

But I am so glad that Jesus does. And that He loves me even though I can not love like He does.

My friend was talking to me the other day about how letting someone know that they have hurt you is love. It is love because you are giving them the chance to acknowledge that they have hurt you and possibly apologize or keep in mind that it is hurtful. In situations where I am hurt by another person, I often find it difficult to let them know how they have hurt me unless it continually happens or it is just intolerable.

So the challenge is this: To not lash back, but to learn, when the time is right, how to love those who have hurt me. This will be my lesson in love.
