Walking in the love of God is a daily walk. There will be opportunities for offense to take you out of your love walk.
If may even have days when you have difficulty remaining unaffected by someone’s behavior. During this time, take a moment to breathe deeply and remind yourself that you did not do anything wrong, and you are not responsible for people’s feelings. But you are responsible how you react to them!
This person may actually be expressing a need to you - reaching out for help or wanting to be heard. You can diffuse the attack by keeping cool and looking at them out of the eyes of Love (God).
You cannot control other people’s emotions, but you can control your own with the help of God. If you sense yourself responding to their negativity, don't allow yourself. Keep your heart open to them, show them love and they may just let go of their defensiveness and yield to your compassion, openness and love.
Much love,
Joseph
