Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. Â This will make you children of your heavenly father. Â – Mt 5:44-45
Reflection. Â Hatred is the enemy of happiness. Â Avoid as much as possible anyone who persecutes you, but do not descend into hatred. Â Jesus said, “I have told you these things so that … your joy may be complete” (Jn 15:11).
Prayer.  Lord of life, bless me with the strength to at least strive for the impossible, namely to love my enemy. Â
