Of Juxtaposing Love And Hate

CATEGORY

Views: 218

 

 

It’s so easy to hate not being loved,

but difficult to love being hated.

What a strange relationship indeed,

when love and hate are paralleled.

 

Love, unlike hate, is eternal

and can never be transformed;

for love is and can only be its self.

 

Hate, on the other hand, can boast

many deceitful manifestations of its self;

demanding and expressing evil

in various deceptive ways—hatefully  

seeking to destroy all that is good.

 

Manifested only in one, the goodness

of love is of God and is impervious to

the will and destructiveness of hate; for

love surpasses all things, not of its making.

 

It may be said that up is the opposite

of down; that day is the opposite of night

and that white is the opposite of black,

but hate can never be the opposite of love.

 

In due season, the injustice of hate

will fade into the love of justice

and the hate of inequality shall melt

and flow into the love of equity.

 

Such is the redeeming power of love

that makes hate powerless: indeed,

where love is, hate can never abide.

 

It will always be impossible for you

to love God, whom you have not seen

and hate any of his precious beings:

Don’t you just hate it that humankind has

yet to master living onederfully with love?
