About Love

I read this verses from Romans 12 from verse 9 to 21, i know you might have heard about it, it is all about love. i suddenly realised how unloving i am, from the way i treat people on the road, my colleagues at work and those so close to me. My selfishness became so clear and i realised that from my unloving conduct i do not deserve to be loved.

But what is so amazing is that am so loved by God and fellow men, and my prayer is just one, help me oh God to love, just the way you want me to.

(Rom 12:9)  Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.

(Rom 12:10)  Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;

(Rom 12:11)  Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;

(Rom 12:12)  Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;

(Rom 12:13)  Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality.

(Rom 12:14)  Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.

(Rom 12:15)  Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.

(Rom 12:16)  Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.

(Rom 12:17)  Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.

(Rom 12:18)  If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.

(Rom 12:19)  Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.

(Rom 12:20)  Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.

(Rom 12:21)  Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
