Not Our Enemies

2 Thessalonians 3:15 - Don't think of them as enemies, but speak to them as you would to a Christian who needs to be warned.

Paul was preaching the second greatest commandment - Love everyone.  Like Jesus said, don't just love your friends, love your enemies too.  They need to be shown the power of God's mercy more than anyone so that they may be saved.

This is something I have gotten a lot better about, but I still need to work on it.  With God's grace and guidance, I will.

Lord, please continue to give me the courage and wisdom to truly love like Jesus loved.  Show me how to love the ones who wish me ill, so that I may be a better example.  Amen!

God Bless!!!
