Love

I decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to carry. (Martin Luther King, Jr.)

There’s something unusual about hatred. When we hate someone, we carry that emotion constantly and suffer from it. At the same time, the person we hate may be completely unaware of our feelings. He is free; we are burdened. How much better to love; everyone benefits.

But to you who are willing to listen, I say, “Love your enemies! Do good to those who hate you” (Luke 6:27).
