It's hard to love in that moment. It's hard to love. It's hard for my wife to love me when I'm being a royal pain in the butt, right? And it's difficult for her to journey with me. It's hard for my kids to honor me when I'm screaming at them and mistreating them all because of whatever's happened through the day. That's the times that we're called, again, not to wrath, but to love, to be gentle, to be meek.
