However, as women of faith, our mission is to experience a deeper relationship with Jesus. That means we&#8217;re called to be set apart\u2014to love like He loves. And let\u2019s be honest, that\u2019s not always easy. Luke 6:32 reminds us that we get no credit if we love only those who love us back. Even unbelievers do that. What sets us apart is loving the \u201cunlovable.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><center><iframe title=\"GO FIRST to Create Real Relationships\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/U9qT_B_k-eI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\u00a0<\/iframe><\/center><center><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/center><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">In the episode, I share a story about an onion\u2014yes, an onion! Over time, it grows a new tender shoot from within, even though its outer layers are crusty and hard. Isn\u2019t that a picture of how God works in us? We all carry wounds and have tough layers, but as we grow closer to Jesus, He peels those layers away. He renews us. And suddenly, that new life begins to grow right from the center\u2014right from the heart.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">Matthew 7:12 reminds us to treat others how we want to be treated, not how we have been treated. When we are healed, when we yield to Jesus, we can truly love others\u2014even the hardest hearts\u2014with His compassion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">So I challenge you: Are you loving well? Are you loving like Jesus in your everyday life?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">If this topic resonates with you, please watch the entire episode! There\u2019s so much more to this message. Let it speak to your heart, so you can keep growing as a woman who grows to reflect His love, even through the hardest layers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.womenoffaith.com\/alita-s-guide-go-first-to-create-real-relationships\" style=\"color: #000000;\">Get Alita\u2019s Free Guide Here<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kajabi-storefronts-production.kajabi-cdn.com\/kajabi-storefronts-production\/file-uploads\/blogs\/13759\/images\/6b16f84-6ac-5028-aab3-5127b48beb1d_signature_block_-3.png\"\/><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script>\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\nn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\nn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.agent=\"plkajabi\";n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,\n                                                                      document,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', '1615217018782581');\nfbq('track', \"PageView\");<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.womenoffaith.com\/blog\/go-first-to-create-real-relationships\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey there!
