Choosing to love

I don’t hate you

I hate what you did

I don’t reject you

I reject what you did

For in me is love

Love that is unblemished

Love that is unwavering

Love that is of God

I hate the sin and not the sinner

I hate the deed but not the brother

For how can I hate you, whom I can see

And profess to love a God that is unseen

I judge the fruit, but not the heart

I judge the deed but not the man

To deny you my love is to be a liar

It is to make null, my love for God

I choose to love you

It doesn’t matter what you did

I choose to forgive you

It’s all there is to do
