A word I hate (do not like)

I have never liked the word "hate" especially when referring to a person.  "Hate" is a harsh, ugly word.  So I've always told my kids that: " you do not hate someone, you might not like them at that moment but you do not hate them."

Now I will have to add to that....."you don't have to "like" them but you have to love them as Christ loves you."  By extending that grace, the grace from God, it will make the difference in the next moment with that person.

John 15:12  This is My commandment, that you love one another, just as I have loved you.

Romans 13: 10  Love does no wrong to others, so love fulfills the requirements of God's law.
