All the paths of the LORD are steadfast love and faithfulness, for those who keep
his
covenant and his decrees. For your name's sake, O LORD, pardon my guilt, for it is great.
What we fail to see is that while WE were unworthy Christ died for us. While WE were unloving
and unloveable he gave himself in our behalf. We already owe a tremendous debt--a debt that can
only be repaid by finding others who are also unworthy and unloving and perhaps unloveable and
passing on to them what we have received.
(Psalm 25:10-11 NRSV)
People often think or say, I will love my neighbor if I feel there is a chance he will love me back. I
will love my neighbor if he is worthy of that love. I will love my neighbor after he shows some
concern for me.
Lord Jesus, what a blessing it is for you to love the unloveable. Help me to do the same. Amen.
