loving is hard man.
since being in Cambodia I have been challenged with many things, one of them being to lay down my pride so that I can love others like Jesus loves us. iv come to realize that I cant love others and pursue others if I don’t truley know my king and deeply love him first. this has challenged me to seek my God harder than ever before.
sometimes loving others doesn’t come naturally and I’m learning thats okay. sometimes we need to step out of our comfort, out of the ordinary in order to show our love for the people around us.
today I made a point to pick one person and pursue them and know them on a deeper level. it was weird at first because I was having to be so extremely intentional to just love someone. which is something so new for me because all of my life relationships came easy, people pursued me and I pursued people without thinking twice. I had never been in a scenario where I needed to dig deep just to find an individual where they are. well…all I can say is im learning so many things from God and the people around me every day. its so cool because im so excited to grow in my knowledge of who my father is and start to learn and know what it really means to love someone.
