life hint: If "Love is like a magic penny", as the old song goes...then hate is a credit card. If you don't do something to zero out the balance you'll just carry it with you and never get out from under it.
John 15:18 -25
Next time you feel like someone hates you, check your hands. See [no] nail scars? Then you got off easy.
"If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first. If you beleonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you. Remember the words I spoke to you: 'No servant is greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also. They will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not know the One who sent me. If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now, however, they have no excuse for their sin. He who hates me hates my Father as well. If I had not done among them what no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin. But now they have seen these miracles, and yet they have hated both me and my Father. But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law: 'They hated me without reason.'"

Have you ever been hated? Describe hate in a physical sense. What does it look like? Sound like? Smell like? Feel like? Have you ever done that to someone else?
Hate is a smooth talker yet sharp, a dark but strong great with little bits of angry red flicked everywhere. It sounds like a scream, a yell, a mocking laugh, it has messed up hair and its eyes glow strangely. It never stops laughing, it has a horrible stench and it feels overwhelming. It's dark, evil, disgusting. Hate gives me the heeby jeebies.
May you never know the damage of hate; but if you do, may God shield you from its jagged edge and heal the scars that it has caused you.
