you know I see alot of hate on facebook. I see people attacking people over what is, most of the time, ridiculous things. and then the other person retaliates and it just keeps going. the thing is that hate only breeds hate. when you put someone down, attack someone, or just show complete hatred towards someone, you are only causing hate to grow in their hearts. youre causing them to fill with hate, darkness, and all the things that we dont want to have in our hearts. and it all usually leads to hurt, damaged, or destroyed relationships. it leads to division between loved ones, and ruined lives. and it is not what the Lord wishes to see happen to His children. God teaches us to love one another. care for one another. and be there for each other. for you see, love heals. love restores. love renews our hearts and brings back together what hate tore apart. love forgives. love brings us joy. love is the strongest force and emotion we have, and it reminds us of how much we matter to God, and each other. love is life. and when we love, we find peace. in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, amen. Anyone who hates another brother or sister is really a murderer at heart. And you know that murderers don’t have eternal life within them.-1 John 3:15(NLT) Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all offenses.-Proverbs 10:12(ESV) If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing. 4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant 5 or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; 6 it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. 7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. 11 When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways. 12 For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known. 13 So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.-1 Corinthians 13(ESV)
