hate the sin, love the sinner.

never have truer, smarter words been spoken. while i lay in this bed, not wanting to move, looking up quotes, i am thinking about all the times i have forgiven people who probably didn't deserve forgiveness. why would you forgive someone who hurt you? it really doesn't make sense until you think about the bigger picture. God loves everyone, even the sinners. when we sin, we hurt Him. but He is always there, with open arms, ready for us to come back to Him. so, with that in mind, it only makes sense to forgive those who hurt us. hate that they hurt us, but love them. because if God has the ability to forgive our sins, then we should have the ability to forgive the sins of others.
