I’m sorry, love what?
Time for morning pump and daily bread yall!
Whewww, this one right here.
I was waiting for “lol” to come after this statement or a just kidding of some sort. If yall find it, let me know.
But I’m pretty sure God said what he said. Lol
this is one of the hardest parts about being a Christian IMO.
“love your enemies and do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you.” Luke 6:27-28
Why is this so difficult? But then the Holy Spirit revealed to me, we need to check our heart.
If we feel that doing this is difficult- evaluate your heart.
As Christians, we shouldn’t want revenge. We shouldn’t want people to suffer or hurt. If we do, we need a heart to heart with Jesus. Pronto.
You see, the goal is to be more like Jesus. If we see people like he does- we shouldn’t desire harm to happen to his people. The more we become like him, the easier loving our enemies will become.
My prayer for you today is that you will begin to see Gods people like he does.

Loving our enemies is one of the most challenging teachings of Christianity, as highlighted in Luke 6:27-28. This verse encourages believers to love those who hate them and offer kindness without expecting something in return. It prompts us to reflect on our hearts and motivations. Why is it so difficult to embrace this teaching? Often, our natural instinct is to seek revenge or harbor feelings of resentment. However, understanding Jesus's perspective and His boundless love for all can reshape our approach to those who oppose us. To truly follow Him, we must cultivate a heart that desires mercy instead of retaliation. Embracing this can transform how we interact with others and help us see their intrinsic value as God’s creations, regardless of their actions towards us. As we strive to embody this Christ-like love, we not only enhance our spiritual growth, but we also build a foundation for healthier relationships and a more compassionate community. Consider reaching out and praying for those who challenge you, allowing God’s love to flow through you, making the seemingly impossible, possible.
Amen! As a Christian, I struggle with this from time to time. Not as much now but I’m trying to get to the point where revenge/ anger doesn’t even cross my mind if someone has hurt or wronged me… definitely working on this.
