It comes by a look in the eye, a touch, a cool drink on a hot day, a loaf of bread to a hungry family, taking time to sit under a shade tree with your child. But most of all it comes by giving yourself completely to God. Most people do not realize that they are saying this to justify hating you. There is an attitude of self-righteousness that will come on people and you can feel it. We have to love each other regardless of how we feel or what the other person is doing.
Love is more than words.
When people hurt us it is real easy to feel justified in rejecting and criticizing them. We will never be able to give others more than we have given God. It doesn't mean we are always right. It simply means be have made a decision to do things God's way and let him bring it to pass. It also means we have decided to forgive the stupidity of others and love them anyway.
