But love your enemies and be good to them. Lend without expecting to be paid back. Then you will get a great reward, and you will be the true children of God in heaven. He is good even to people who are unthankful and cruel. ~ Luke 6:35 (CEV)
KEY IDEA:
Don't write anyone off as an enemy for when the Lord is involved, there is hope.PRAYER:
Lord, thank you for being here for us. I get discouraged because there are so many enemies out there -- people who want to harm us or take advantage of us. I'm sorry for letting fear define how I relate to people. Show me some practical ways to love our enemies. I'm looking forward to the development of new friends. In Jesus' name, Amen.
