The world is full of different people. We are all different from one another. We get along with some people better than others. Sometimes we prefer certain kinds of people over others. We just don't like some characters, because they are just plain irritating. Some people just suck on your life and you never get anything from them. Some people are just too controlling and never give you a space to breath. Some people are just rude, some people are dirty e.t.c the list can go on about certain things we don't like in different individuals.
The problem is that sometimes we don't acknowledged to ourselves that we don't like certain characters. If we don't not acknowledge certain things to God and to ourselves we will not grow. We will remain the same. If you want to be able to accept different kinds of people understand that they are not all the same and there are certain things about them that you may not like, but if you bring it before the Lord and you acknowledge you own feelings about them then you have taken a big step in learning to accept people. Remember if we do not accept their differences its unhealthy for us and our reactions to them will not be Christ like, because of what we truly feel and think about them. we may try to hide our feelings about them but it will eventually show up. Sometimes we just react in rudeness or anger because we just want to push them away.
Remember God wants to use you for great things. He wants to use you to impact a lot of lives and if you are choosy about whom you accept you may loose your inheritance. Lets accept people the way they are and give them the freedom to grow. The freedom to be in contact with God who will then change them accordingly. Be blessed and have a great week
