Ok, it’s time for a message. What’s going on? Proverbs 10:12 tells us that “Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all sin”. We live in a world today where we have in some ways legitimized hatred because of hatred. When hatred is alive nothing is ever dead. Hatred won’t allow things to die. Hatred will seek to punish what should be forgiven. God may sometimes become angry towards us but He is never mean towards us. Today it is the social norm for us to uncover more than we cover. We want to stir up old stuff that has already died. You see, hatred tells us that we do not have to live in peace with anything that was hurtful in our past. So hate stirs up strife in our lives and we then stir up strife in the lives of those around us. But Love! Love says to us, stuff is going to happen to us; we are going to do some stuff; and we are gonna know about some stuff. Stuff is what should remind us to be grateful and understanding and to appreciate that sometimes it’s the stuff that happens to us that makes us better; and it’s the stuff that we do that we hate that makes us better than that; and it’s the stuff that God keeps from ever happening to us that makes us our best. Love doesn’t say stuff is ok; Love says let stuff die and bury it so that the best you can live with your old stuff right where you are. If it happened five minutes ago it is old stuff. Get hatred out of your life. Let it die and cover it with love and let the best you live. Live a Delivered Life. Love you
