The people who hate us.

I cant understand what makes a man hate another man help me understand. These are lines from a popular Tears for Fears song. I have to say that I can relate with the composer of this song cause I have experiences in my life where people would just hate you for unknown reasons. I'm sure that I am not the only one who has felt the chill in the spine whenever we would come across people like this. Even people whom you have never met in your life will even treat you this way the moment they first laid their eyes on you. You'll know the signs almost immediately; they won't talk to you even if you try and break the ice, they would gossip about you, they don't make eye contact. I mean, what is it with this people? Why can anyone be so mean?

These kind of people are everywhere you go, in the office, in the gym, in school, their everywhere! It's a sad fact that they exist and I can never understand why they act this way. Is it just paranoia? I don't think so; the bible says that you should treat others as you would want them to treat you, I guess that they just haven't heard of that or they just completely ignore it. No matter how irritating they are because of the way they treat you, we are still to love them because Christ loved us first and He still does. It's hard to love difficult people but are we not difficult ourselves when it comes to God's standards? Think about it; we have fallen short of God's glory. Romans 3:23. God also commanded us to love one another as it says in 1 John 4:7. If people hate our guts then let us just pray for them and continue to show love as the Lord commands us to do no matter how difficult it is. God knows I am trying my very best and I do want to love others the way Christ loves me.
