We have to face that human beings are fallen. According to the book of Jeremiah, our hearts are so depraved that we really are not capable of loving others. We are all selfish. All we care about is our own good; and in many cases, by focusing on our own selfishness, we basically ensure our destruction. When we believe in Jesus Christ and when we choose Him as our personal Savior, His love enters our lives. That is when for the first time in our lives we have real love, and we are called to share that love with others not just with the people that treat us well, not just to the people we are related to, and not just to the people we like, but throughout all the world. As Jesus said, a bright light should not be covered by a bushel, but put on a lamp stand so that the whole world can see. When you put a light on a lamp stand, it means that you do not care who sees the light. It means that you do not discriminate. Whether gay, straight, different races, disabled people, or non-Christians - does not matter. God'�s love reaches out to everybody and invites everybody, and so should the love Jesus puts in your heart.
