"Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to do so."
(Proverbs 3:27)
There are several situations in which I have a hard time loving perfectly lovable people. I become selfish in my love, carefully selecting which people I allow into my circle of love and compassion. The people I have known longest and traditionally should love the most are the hands-down most difficult to love.
What I need to work on is communicating love, doing good, to those who deserve it even when I'm jealous of them, or angry with them, or just find them annoying. It's like loving the unlovable... without the excuses.
"My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever." ~Psalm 73:26
