Love: No Other Choice

I'm realizing what it means to be a slave to righteousness. To walk in the natural way of loving others no matter how others treat us because we fear God, not hardening our hearts no matter what. As soon as I get scared of being persecuted for righteousness sake, a spirit of fear comes over me and the devil grips me. There's no other way to live but to surrender to love.

Ive been unemployed for over a year now and I live in an area where there are lots of homeless people... And I felt like God was showing me I will be like that if I don't surrender. I hardened my heart for a long time because I didn't want people to hurt me.

Am I surrendering to love? No, I am not. I know I'm not. I have at times in the past, but fear would always come back and take me back over, it never lasted. But I have to. We all have to as God's children because it's Truth.

Jesus said "be obedient unto death and you will save your souls." It's taking me a long time to understand this verse. We must not harden our hearts no matter what, love everyone and everything because there is NO other option. It's either love or darkness.
