Love your enemy!

One of the hardest commands of Jesus:

 Matthew 5:43-44

43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ 44 [a]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,

It is easy to love those who treat you well and love you in return, however it is overwhelmingly hard to love those who dislike, hate, abuse, and cause you great stress!!! This is what separates those who follow Jesus from others as we have the power of the Holy Spirit to forgive and love like Jesus because we know our fight is not with the person but with Satan. 

We love the hard to love because we want them to see Jesus in us and come to Him and follow Him as Lord and Savior!

So how are you doing in this area???
