"But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you." -Luke 6:27-28 (NIV)
In our lives we encounter difficult people. We may find ourselves in situations that challenge us to love and do good. In these situations, we shouldn't give up. No matter how tough it might seem, we should turn to love.
Sometimes we may find it difficult to deal with people that are our enemies or that hate us, but Jesus provides us and example to follow. Even when we are treated unkindly, we need to respond with love. We can show love by doing good and praying for those that mistreat us. It's not always easy, but with practice we can begin to love even those that challenge us the most!
Practice tough love by doing good and praying for those that seem the most difficult!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for loving me. Help me to remember the example set by Jesus, so I can love and do good to all people, even those that seem difficult. In Jesus name I pray, amen.
