Loving others does not mean that they can abuse you. Loving others does not mean that you as a person have to be diminished. No. Loving others is about encouraging them to live a life that is beyond measure. Free from fear. Free from the tyranny of others who would call themselves Lord. Good does not come when you let others make you feel insecure, shrunken. This is not how the we were ever intended to live. We are meant as the children of God to manifest His wonders and glory. We are called to live beyond the measure, beyond the world of dreams. In doing so we give permission to the light he places within us to shine, shine brightly. This is something not to be afraid of. Darkness is dispelled. We answer the question to the world to why the light does not shine brightly. As we let our own light shine we reveal the glory of the God's image that he created us to be. This is something not to be afraid of. In doing so we over turn the tyranny of abuse. The lies and torture of this world are overturn. We then by example guide others to cast down the false chains of life diminished for a world of life abundant.
Let your light shine in this season of advent. Christ the King has called each one of us to live beyond measure. Live the kingdom life.

Good insight.
I have observed that in the Church, the language of our faith is used to manipulate and put down others -- usually in the name of correcting a wayward brother in Christ. It's important to put such abuse to a stop as soon as it appears.
