You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be children of your Abba in heaven; . . .
Matthew 5:43-45a
“May peace prevail upon the face of the Earth.”
Let us start right now, faithfully following in the way of Jesus, being peacemakers in our own time.
My Prayer
Holy One, help me to be more like Jesus, show me how to do the hard work of loving my enemies, praying for those who hurt me, loving others as you have loved me. Amen.
