Good Monday morning! Sorry I’ve been MIA lately. Between lots of company and celebrations, plus being sick for a week….Well, you all know how it is. I hope everyone had a great holiday season and you are up and running in the new year.
Here’s a verse, one with a difficult command, to contemplate today.
It’s so much easier to do good things for those we love, right? Yet, Jesus commands us to LOVE our enemies. What? LOVE them? How do we do that?
We certainly don’t love our enemies through our own strength. It is only through Christ’s strength that we can accomplish this task.
Have you pictured an enemy in your head? Can you think of ways you might love that person?
Father, only You can give me the insight and the strength to love my enemy. Show me a specific way to show love to this person and give me the strength to obey your command.
