Using our light

"Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates his brother is still in the darkness."

1 John 2:9

God is simply saying, if you claim that you are a Christian and claim that you love the Lord how can you deny others and hate others who claim the same thing as well. Yesterday on twitter I said, "Hate isn't in my heart, it's more like I forgave you and know that's not where I need to be. Need people to build me up, not tear me down." There's a difference in hating someone and distancing yourself from people. We can't live with a hateful heart. Learn how to forgive others when they are wrong and grow from it. A brother is defined by someone who is close to us and has an interest at heart. We can't hate the ones that love us unconditionally. We have to live in the light and not in the dark. How can we find the open door in a dark cave without the light to guide us? You can't. So keep the light in your heart and share your light with others.
