Love is the most powerful force in the world, and of all the words that could be used to describe what God is like, the apostle John chose “love.” Our experience with the forgiving nature of God gives us an example of perfect love. And the power of love is encompassed by what this proverb says—love can overshadow even the biggest wrongs.  When you have love for someone, you seek resolution over conflict. While hate looks for an opportunity to discard what has been broken, love desires to re-build relationships to be stronger than they were before the break. Ask God to fill you with the love that represents God’s character so that you can overpower the feelings of hatred that may try to enter your life.
