Re: Loving the Unlovable:

That is why, when I meet, or know someone unlovable, I have to go back to my prayer closet, and allow the Lord Jesus to transform my heart, so that I can love that person through Him. It can't be done any other way. We can humanly try to love each other, but it just brings despair. But when we see people through the eyes of Jesus, there is hope, and there is joy, and there is something greater than any human emotion can produce. It is life changing.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! You are SPOT ON

AMEN!
Amen again! Yet the common model has your preacher as the one pointing out these "inadequacies," and would suggest that you avoid those people as "unproductive" to your life?
