This was a place where the command to love your neighbor as yourself was a daily challenge. I don’t blame you for being cautious with your little girls. Sometimes my boys would be invited to play at a home I was leary of. I would usually tell the children I needed to meet their parents first. Often the invitation stopped with that. I pray that during the 7 years we lived there we were hospitable enough towards our neighbors to show Jesus’ love but discerning enough to keep our children safe. I will say a prayer for the Romeos.
