Loving People Who Are Hard to Love Quotes

“I don’t believe there is a person on the planet who doesn’t want to be loved.

― Joyce Meyer, Loving People Who Are Hard to Love: Transforming Your World by Learning to Love Unconditionally

Some people are motivated by making money, so they get up each day to climb the ladder of worldly success. Even though they may think they love what they do, they are loving something that can never fulfill or satisfy them. Anything apart from God has no ability to make and keep us happy.”
