During today's service where Pastor Ulf talked about missions, I felt God say something to me: "How can you save people if you can't love them fully and accept them the way I do?"

This brought back one of my foods for thought: If you can't accept someone that you can see and can talk to on Earth with love, how can you say you love God, whom you have not seen nor spoken to directly?

This really makes me think. I mean, everyone definitely has someone they don't particularly like. But God sacrificed his beloved son to save the world – to save EVERYONE regardless of his or her flaws and pet peeve qualities. Shouldn't we love them all like God does? Yes, that's what makes us different from the rest of the world. If you love God, you show it by loving the ordinary people around you.

So why do people still feel annoyed by others? I guess it's cause we're human. But no matter what, we'll keep trying won't we?

To a better future,
Elizabeth.

PS: Let's keep praying for our cell group members friends and siblings in Christ who are going through tough times.

PPS: 'Cell group members' sounded like a formal term. Thought 'friends' sounded better.
