Where Love is NOT welcome?
Will there be some people that wont welcome a message of Love?
Have some people been hurt by those claiming to be of God and so they will reject His Love?
“As the time approached for Him to be taken up to heaven, Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem. And He sent messengers on ahead, who went into a Samaritan village to get things ready for Him; but the people there did not welcome Him, because He was heading to Jerusalem. When James and John saw this, they asked, “Lord do you want us to call fire down from Heaven to destroy them? But Jesus rebuked them. Then He and His disciples went to another village.” – Luke 9:51-56
Will there be those that as soon as you say anything about words like “God” or “Love” will bristle up like a porcupine?
Even if they have heard what you said only a small amount has really gotten through but Love is patient. Love takes time and Love is on a different timetable for each person. There is a transformation that we go through in this life as a Brother of mine points out but your transformation and mine is not at all on the same timetable or timeline. In other words my job is to be Loving NOT to force change and force the Love I have experienced on others.
One other thing to remember it is not necessarily you they are rejecting it is probably the pain, fear and hurt from those who said they were part of Love only to use it in a wrong way.
It seems that at times we are ready to condemn those that dont accept our message of love without understanding that it is their pain that is causing them to reject it for now.
We need to be lovingly rejected as well as loving if there is any hope for the seeds of Love to transform the pain of the other into another fruit tree to feed more hungry people.
If one rejects your Love message go to another or another. Those who need Love will soon begin to seek you out and then villages everywhere will shine from the Love seeds you planted and watered.
