Matthew 5:43-48 43 “You
have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ 44 But
I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that
you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on
the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 If
you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the
tax collectors doing that? 47 And if you greet only your own people,
what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? 48 Be
perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
Matthew 5:44 (NIV)
Jesus said, “I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who
persecute you.”
Thought for today:
Do you have compassion and empathy for those who persecute you? Can you see and
understand their brokenness?
