Matthew 5:44
44 But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you,
Jesus did this and He expects us to do the same. Only by the power of the Holy Spirit can we do this. Our own human nature wants us to retaliate but God wants us to show His love with the purpose that person may see the love of God in us so they may want to change and find Jesus for themselves.
If we say we can't do this we may want to look at our relationship with the Lord for this is a command not an option!
