When we gave our lives to Christ and received the Holy Spirit so many things took place within us. One of these is that the nature of God is imparted into our recreated human spirit. We therefore have within us the capacity of God to function exactly like God.
The love of God is poured into our hearts. Our hearts therefore become the reservoir of God’s love. We can always make withdrawals from there each time there is a need for it.
If we don’t recognise this we’ll spend most of our time in life living in unforgiveness and bitterness.
In your situation, there are people and situations that will make you angry every day. That is why we must allow the Holy Spirit within us to find expression.
Capacity to love means that
No matter what anyone says about me will not dampen my heart or affect my disposition towards them.
Somebody else will not make me become bitter and stupid.
No matter what happens, I have a fixed response. My life will not be controlled externally but internally.
I am no longer a slave to human opinion and hatred. It will no longer bother me.
I have the capacity to relate with people on the highest level and be a positive influence in their lives. I literally become a change agent wherever I am found, because love flows from me.
These help our healing faster. May God help us all.
Rom 5:5 NIV
And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.”
