Where's the Love?

I had a great time at the Underground last night.
We ended up parking on this one concept regard hate and intolerance.
That our preferences often be come our prejudices
What a huge take-away!
    And why should we care at all anyway?
I mean, what the big deal if I prefer people who are more like me?
1 John 2:11 says
Whoever hates is still in the dark, stumbles around in the dark, doesn't know which end is up, blinded by the darkness.

Hate is blinding.

When we hate others we become blind to the whole story. Blind to the extent of God's grace and it's life-changing power.

So, in your world, may you show God's love in powerful and tangible ways, and be on guard against hate, so that no one around will be able to ask. "Where is the love?"
