TOTD, January 14

Love God and Love Your Brother

The verses of the bible today are quite strict, telling us or even urging us to be consistent. If we say we love God, we need to show Him by not having any hate against our brothers. It’s really hard to do so, because living in this world, with so many different characters, we might encounter problems in our daily interaction. But, it’s not mission impossible, though…

We can choose not to hate our brothers. Maybe we don’t like them, maybe they are very mean or fierce to us, or even spread bad things about us. But, the main point is still: try not to hate them. Accept other people’s limitation, as we got our limitation and can sometimes hurt others too. Love God and love our brother! (-fon-)

If anyone says, "I love God," yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. And he has given us this command: Whoever loves God must also love his brother.

--- 1 John 4:20-21
