You can love a person dear to you with a human love, but an enemy can only be loved with divine love.

About This Quote

What God has sent us is a beautiful gift, and we should love the gift and cherish it. But we should also love the person who gave us the gift. We can love someone you love with a human love, but an enemy can only be loved with divine love. You can get angry with your friend for doing something that hurts you, but you should not get angry at your enemies for hurting you.
