Have you ever had someone do something nice for you and you thought "wow, you are an amazing person and I couldn't love you more?" Then pretty soon that same person screws up? It seems like the great acts (no matter how many they have built up) are very quickly forgotten because they hurt you in one act??
Why is that when someone does one bad thing, that we forget all the joy they bring to our life?
Why is it we choose to be so quick to forget? To forget the good and love them through the bad.
I have found in good relationships that harm/hurt (damage to the relationship) is usually not done on purpose. You see it is the act of choosing to love them in spite of the hurt that makes us push deeper. Deeper into knowing them and who God created them to be, and understanding more why God brought them into your life.
Can I find grace and love to give them?
Can I be the one to do the good act of kindness towards them??
In the 27 years I have been alive (and mainly the last 8) I realize how much relationships push you to constantly give. Give your heart, your love, your forgiveness and yourself. That is what Christ did the whole time He journeyed on the earth, here as a human, He gave constantly, His heart, His Love, His forgiveness and Himself.
He left us a perfect example, are we following it?
