God commanded me to love you as He loved me. When I look back at myself before now, it makes me cringe and feel ashamed. It's a shame that my actions and beliefs didn't align with my experiences, which eventually brought me to "Tears to My Testimony".
Vision Jesus, dying on the cross after being brutally beaten, blood trickling down like a stream of water. Following, hands and feet were nailed and hammered to the wood. He sacrificed his life for our lives (my life). The offering of life or death. Once I found that I was a sinner, I had a choice to live free from the consequences of doing bad, acting on some things deep down inside I didn't want to do.
The most unbelievable is becoming more believable, and it truly hurts my heart. I don't fully understand why pastors/teachers, etc., in the church are not teaching from the Bible but talking from the pulpit. We are to love our neighbors: the person in front of you, behind you, to your left, and to your right, wherever you are. Yes, as follows: your next-door neighbor you don't like, the impatient person in the store checkout line, rude people, prejudiced people, poor customer service crew member/rep, the homeless, etc.
I was confused about the true meaning of love. Love is not what most of us think it means. Take this well-known saying, for instance: I'll die for my kid(s), Christ sacrificed his life for us all, He
Love is not proud, rude, self-seeking, easily angered; Love does not boast, delight in evil, keep record of wrongs.
So my heart breaks for the assassination of Charlie Kirk, a God fearing man, husband, father to two, and a brother in Christ.
