You're right. It's one of the hardest things we have to do. But we have to do it, no matter what. Nothing else will work.

Love a soul no matter what situation
I can Love a person but I may not love what they do. To tell the truth to them. Treat them how You would want them to treat you. But to Love God unconditionally and then to Love yourself unconditionally and then to Love your family, friends, enemies unconditionally. That is not always easy.

I agree. I'm not sure there are very many who truly understand unconditional love.

Many people limit their understanding of “love” to a valentines view. This view is far to shallow, to completely comprehend the meaning associated with its usage by Jesus. I do agree though…God…is an unconditional God.

Good question. Unfortunately though, I think not. Conditional love is just that. It is based on conditions. It will therefore be recognized and acknowledged by those who only know conditional love. For many conditional love is all that is known. And for one whose self esteem is shaken, or whose soul is damaged, conditional love may be better than no love at all.

Does that mean only our unconditional love is recognized or acknowledged?
