Forget Regret or Life is Yours To Miss

So lately I have come to terms with my purpose in this life, and that my friends is to love. God opened my eyes to everything I have found wrong with my life and the root of it all is the fact that I cannot love unconditionally. After opening my eyes, he opened my heart, and recently I desire nothing more but to love people and treat them like they are people, but I have screwed up a couple times in that there are a few people I am having a hard time even tolerating let alone loving. I pray for help there. I also have a hard time not comparing my love for someone to their love returned, but I am trying so hard to dispose of that notion that one must love me as much as I love them. I say this not to glorify my motives but to glorify God who is based on love. Yes, our God is a god of wrath, but beyond that He loves, you cannot become angry at someone for hurting themselves if you do not love them first. God never set up these laws of acceptance that we bind ourselves to, instead He just spread truth, there werent these heirarchies of hyprocrisy governing Him, I desire to be that way, I desire to walk like Jesus. I want to enter every relationship with no motive but to love that person as God does, and pray that God would work that relationship to his will. God's love is an unbelievable thing, my mind cannot fathom the love He bears, but that, I suppose, is why I am not God among other reasons.

I stink at expressing my thoughts.

Yes, ask God to let you see people, and yourself, the way He sees them.

That didn't stink in the slightest. That's the prayer we all should have in our hearts.
