I don't remember everything I read in the bible. I mean, Leviticus alone makes me want to poke my eyes out at times, although I know that it has purpose. But one thing I recall again and again throughout the bible is loving one another.
I fail at loving my brothers and sisters. It doesn't say love only the pretty people. Or the nice ones. Or just your friends. It says love one another. And this is something that I need help with.
I need to get off this mindset that we all have our "gifts". I know that God blesses each one of us with specific gifts, but just because I'm not as comfortable reaching out to homeless men and women as I am to children doesn't mean I can use that as an excuse to bypass these people.
Every decision that we make in our lives has already been planned out by our God. And each decision leads us in a different direction. I'm going to pray for this area of my life; to be more....courageous for my God.
