Things that has changed for me since I intentionally decided to walk in Love: 1. I choose to be kind, instead of being harsh 2. I choose to Love even though I am being wronged (our human nature response to this would be to fight fire with fire) it doesn't work and the person we hurt the most is ourselves and not the other person that are at the receiving end of our harshness or anger 3.
