There should be something different about the love of a Christian. We're called to bless those who curse and persecute us. To give our tunic and our cloak as well.

But how often do we fail to love with God's own love? How often do we disregard, abuse, and hate those whom we should love simpy because they are  different in some small way?

That is not how God loves.
