I used to always look for faults in others. I considered myself good and thought about hating someone, planning who to hate today. I would read the Word and thought of myself as wise and knowledgeable. I also prayed, but at the same time, I harbored hatred.
But the Lord made me realize that I should love everyone, keep my nature good, love all, and make it a habit. God did not create anyone to be the object of our anger; we should love everyone. No matter how badly others treat us, we should respond with kindness.
Just like a scorpion cannot change its nature of biting, we should never lose the nature of loving others.
“Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself.”
– Philippians 2:3
