I don't know of my enemies.....for a few who have a grudge, they are treated as friends. I will greet them with a handshake, a smile and all the warmth I can. Most enemies are soon less so. But all that has say before is correct.
1. Do let the enemy take advantage of you. If you are a victim of abuse leave the situation fast. 2. Pray for the enemy. This is for your peace of mind. 3. Forgive the enemy. 4. Learn to love the enemy. I am not saying invite the enemy over for dinner. I am saying show kindness to the enemy. This is for spiritual health. It takes person of strong character to pray, forgive, and love the enemy. This may even take a lifetime to happen, but as long you are progressing on the path of righteousness that what matters. I hope this advice helps you Jacque Price.
Why do you think you have an enemy? Maybe you just think that person is one. In your heart, I think you know what to do but if not then..... Draw closer to God and love Him. His life will glow through you. Fill your heart with love for others and think of them as "children of God". Try to emulate love of Christ and have compassion even if they seem to be an enemy and seem to be unkind. Love them and treat them as a fellow child of heavenly father. Strive to walk the path of discipleship. As your love for God and children deepens, so does your commitment to follow Jesus Christ. Feed upon His word and applying it with a humble heart and you will grow with confidence. It takes practice. Two steps forward, one step back. The important thing is, don't give up. You will become, better, happier and more authentic. It will be normal. Let your "Light Shine" and trust God to work His miracles. A hardened heart can soften. He knows you, loves you, and blesses you.
