Mark, My point exactly as none of us can reflect unconditional love all the time or perhaps even come close. By turning to Jesus we become closer to God in that the Holy Spirit then dwells in us. He is also called the Comforter and Councellor and our bodies become the temple of God. Relying upon our own selves or waiting to "evolve positively" we will always fail because we cannot reach perfection. The bible says we can achieve that here and now by being made righteousness in Christ. Faith and trust in the one who is our creator and is perfect unlike us. He always has an open invitation of "come as you are." FITB - found in the bible :0) Thank you for the IMO clarification. John

><>...Mark, Unconditional love is not so difficult to ...><> express. And it is so much easier when we call to mind the examples of Jesus The Christ... The difficulty in part, is when we attempt to express it Unconditional love) in terms of our own soul. The soul of the one which we are communicating with is the soul we should be attempting to reach. Part of my daily prayer is to have God reveal to me the souls of those whom I come into contact with. To allow me to see beyond all the baggage and words that might offend. I ask God to "let me see their soul", because I know it is the soul of all men that truly wants to communicate. For our souls are from God. 1Thes 5:23-24 23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24 Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it. Sincerely, Shalom...><> BTW, you probably do more of it than you realize. (Express unconditional love)
