Have you noticed your sudden dislike and hate for that person who should have been dear to you yet you pretend to like him or her? You shut every opportunity that will have you be a part of his or her success. Oh! You feel you don’t know why you are having such negative feelings? Maybe deep inside, you know but you don’t wanna accept, you just wanna keep looking for faults in him or her to justify your negative feelings. Let me quickly draw your attention to a few reasons you are nursing such hate in your heart.
Did you notice that you started having such negative feelings when you saw that he or she gets more attention from people, loved and preferred than you? You also started nursing that hate in your heart when you got an unverified report about him or her from haters, and that moment when you realized that you are no match to his or her abilities. You discovered you just can’t grasp his or her uniqueness, you suddenly settle for hate as your defense. You started creating your own little drama out of jealousy. Now let me ask you; are you really comfortable with that burden in your heart called hate? Can you see you are the only one suffering because it doesn’t affect the other person? Maybe your hate will soon degenerate to the point the person will know you hate him or her but you will be shocked at the person’s response because some people have grown in the Lord to the point where they comfortably accommodate hate and insult without being moved by it.
Now you alone, wallowing in pain, the pain of hate that only you can solve, by choosing to love, supporting and knowing that we are products of love. Martin Luther King Jr. said “I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear”. It is hard to hate someone when you understand them. The moment you start disliking or hating someone everything they do annoys you even when they sneeze.
If you say you hate him because he betrayed you or hate you too then you are no different from him. Love is our greatest defense against hatred. You must note this, except you have the love of God you can never really love.
