Have you ever experienced someone who you would consider to have genuine motives and intent, as compared to another person whose intentions are evident to be not what they seem. Discerning or judging of others can at times be difficult to say-the least because we all want to experience the best intentions and motives from others. The love of God that has been poured out into your heart is genuine, real, and when you share that love to others, it should be an unchanging expression of the one who resides in you.

“Don’t just pretend to love others. Really love them. Hate what is wrong. Hold tight to what is good.” Romans 12:9
