Trying to figure out. Do I want people to change because its good for them or because its good for me? Do I want people to be who they can be or who I think they should be? Do I pray for God will in my life and the life of others do I honestly want his will or my agenda.
Love my neighbor doesn't say just love the loveable or just those that look, act, or think or even believe like me. While I don't think loving your neighbor means to necessarily give them everthing they want. Somtimes loving your neighbor means saying no and allowing them to do for themselves. Neighbor can be substituded for friend, parent, child or even neighbor
