It's hard to love

The past week or two I've had a lot on my mind. Thinking about "friendships" (or what I thought were friendships.) and people in my life and from my past. Something keeps playing over and over again. I can't say how much pain comes from being walked away from. And this leaves me scared that Andrew will one day do the same.

I was doing my devotion the other day. And read this
1 John 4:7-12

7Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. 9This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son[a] into the world that we might live through him. 10This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for[b] our sins. 11Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 12No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.


no matter how much hurt I've had, or pain i"ve been through, I must love. And I have to say that is very hard for me to do sometimes. But I realize how important it is. I am going to work on it (with God's help.) And hopefully I can have a pure heart someday! One with love...
