love is indiscriminate

Indiscriminate- love is indiscriminate.  It is not given to some and withheld from others. True love goes out to all.  As the lamp provides light to all, true love is indiscriminate.   As the scent of the rose is available to all,  so love is blind.  The tree provides shade to the good and the evil, love is available to all.

When we are acting in love, the kindness goes out to all.  We love the friend and the foe.  The home team and the rival.  We love those who like us and those who hate us.  True love goes out to all.   Don't be bothered by anyone.   Don't be disturbed by anyone who is mean.  Keep loving.  Keep caring.   Let the shade fall on them,  the scent of the rose find them.  Let the light of your love go out to all.

Love cannot be contained.  It wants to come out of us.   It wants to forgive.   It wants to heal.  Don't be overcome by your hurts, find the love in your heart and give it out again.   Give it back again. And again.  To the new person in the office, to the old curmudgeon, to the friend, to the surly, to the rich to the poor.  When we learn to love like God loves, everyone is the recipient.

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
