Grace and peace to you from our Lord Jesus Christ.
At times, we may face enemies in our lives. Whether because of our faith, or some other incident in life, there may be people in the world who do not like us. More than that there may be people in the world who would wish us harm. What do we do in the face of such pain and turmoil? We pray. Jesus tells us to 'love our enemies and pray for those who persecute you.' Returning hate for hate will get us nowhere. The only way for us to get rid of the hatred is to continue to love. This is a long process, obviously. We may continue to have enemies and those enemies may still persecute us. But our love, and the love of God, can turn things around. It may take time, but love is the best thing to put against hate. God bless you.
