I love people. I find their life stories fascinating, not from a gossip perspective, but from a you-are-one-of-a-kind-special perspective. Oprah once did an everyone-has-a-story show and it was amazing to hear what roads people had traveled so far in their individual lifetimes. Maybe that's why traveling interests me so much. I like to take different roads with different adventures meeting different people who have traveled on their own roads.
I had a conversation today that reminded me how uniquely wonderful God has made each and everyone one of us. I wish I always treated everyone as the treasure God made them to be, but in my humanness I find that I sometimes am unkind, or impatient, or judgmental. I guess I practice conditional love even though I say I love people. That's why I am thankful that God's love for me -- and everyone else---is unconditional.
"We love Him because He first loved us." (John 4:19)
