Oops, did my wall just fall

Tuesday April 8th, 1 Peter 1: 21 And when he did come, it was to lead you to have faith in God, who raised him from death and honored him in a glorious way. That's why you have put your faith and hope in God. 22 You obeyed the truth, and your souls were made pure. Now you sincerely love each other. But you must keep on loving with all your heart. 23 Do this because God has given you new birth by his message that lives on forever. God has given you new life, and what you are to do with that new life is to love one another. This is not an easy task; many of those who need to be loved the most seem to be the least lovable. They have up their walls of protection the same way we do. In the process of loving the seemingly unlovable we often find that walls do come down, usually they are our walls. In loving others, what we discover most is our self. Perhaps the other discovers the same thing. An so it goes round and round. Christ empted himself in the world and our joyous journey is the discovery of that at every turn. Especially the ones we never intended to take.
