We ought to be able to love those who are sinful and unkind and selfish…

“When our hearts are occupied with his wondrous love, we remember that he loved us when we were unlovely, and some of us are not very lovely now; we remember that he loved us when we were unlovable, and some of us are not very lovable yet. If he could do that when we were rebellious, and if that same love is now shed abroad in our hearts, we ought to be able to love those who are sinful and unkind and selfish.” - Dr. H. A. Ironside
