That's the way God wants it to be. ( Matthew 5 v 43 - 48 )

I heard a song by Billy Preston called,'That's the way God planned it',it struck a cord with me,the next line in the song goes,'That's the way God wants it to be'.It touches on humility,helping each other, Our Saviour put this challenge out to those who follow Him,that they should love their enemies and pray for for those who persecute them. He told them how God blessed both the good and the bad ,and so should they..The love Jesus is speaking of ,was agape love,  William Barclay comments on this ,he writes',It means that no matter how they treat us,no matter if they insult us or injure us or grieve us,we will never allow any bitterness against them to invade our hearts,but will regard them with that unconquerable benevolence and goodwill which will seek nothing but their highest good',This is a different kind of love, that we would have for our nearest and dearest,nor should we allow them to do absolutely what they like .' Jesus then told his followers ,'Be perfect ,therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect'.again W. Barclay on the Greek word for perfect,that it describes a thing that is perfect if it achieves the purpose for which they were created for'.That's the way God planned it,That's the way God wants it to be.'
