Chapters
Have to learn love as you follow God. I saw a video, a guy just killed a boy. There were two in their family that their father gave birth to in America, just killed the boy. And while they were in the court, a white guy killed a black boy. And you know what that is? The boy whose brother was killed went to meet the boy that killed his brother and he hugged him, said, I forgive you, I forgive you, Jesus loves you, Jesus loves you. It was until then that the boy that killed the guy, all the judgment they were giving him, was just looking. When that boy hugged him he broke down in tears. Love can penetrate where criticism can't enter. If we understand this, you will discover that some people are misbehaving because they have given up. That everybody must have a taste of the pain I'm going through in life. The world will feel it. What will transform them? Love. You have so much love to give. And the same thing for marriage, okay? If you want to change a partner you have not accepted, you frustrate yourself and frustrate that partner. The real agent of change is love. Love can bring anybody out of a pit, any pit.
