Yeshua
wants me to
love the brOTHER
Loving the brOTHER hurts
it is a kind of death
Something is dying to truly love
the bitter things and the fearful
jealousy
envy
resentment
entitlement
unforgiveness
greed
fear
bigotry
prejudice
suspicion
arrogance and disdain
the self-seeking things and the defensive
For love
self lies down surrendered
naked and vulnerable
In love
love executes self
joyfully
leaves self
hanging there
exposed and
bleeding out
Only then the brOTHER can be loved
only then the brOTHER can be
my brother
This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. John 15:12
