Offend
To NOT be offended by others actions, we must love them unconditionally.
Jesus loved Judas unconditionally knowing all the time that Judas would
betray him. Conditional love is when we put expectations on the love we
have for others. This is setting ourselves up to be offended and hurt.
For sooner or later, the other person will not live up to our expectations. We
need to visually in our minds, 'pull down and discard' any expectations we have for
others.
