I want to tell you all this morning that you can absolutely disagree with someone and still love them.  We have been duped into thinking that love is based on the total acceptance of every opinion, thought, action and reaction of another.   And that is just not true

We’ll never completely agree with another person on everything. Not even our spouse or best friend. Of the nearly eight billion people in the world right now, there’s not a single person like you. That means there won’t be anyone with your exact viewpoint on life, politics, money, relationships, or religion. You are uniquely you, and so is the person next to you.

Even though we’re all different, we can still love others. Why is it important to love people when we clearly don’t see eye to eye with? Because Jesus said so. He said, “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another” (John 13:34 NIV). When Jesus commanded us to love others, He didn’t say that we had to agree with them first. So, what does love look like?

Love considers others first.

Love looks for the best.

Love shows respect.

Love seeks unity.

Love isn’t selfish.

Love offers the best.

Love displays patience.
