Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.
John 14:6
If your enemies are hungry, give them food to eat. If they are thirsty, give them water to drink. You will heap burning coals of shame on their heads, and the Lord will reward you.
Proverbs 25:21-22
“Love your enemies! Do good to them. Lend to them without expecting to be repaid. Then your reward from heaven will be very great, and you will truly be acting as children of the Most High, for he is kind to those who are unthankful and wicked.
Luke 6:35
Father, we sometimes hold a grudge and use our words to be spiteful or mean, so that others can feel the pain we are experiencing. Lord, help us let go of the pain and extend kindness and love to all, even to those who are our enemies. You alone are the one who can judge us and take away our sins. Forgive us and forgive our enemies. We thank you for your grace, through our redeemer, Jesus. Amen.
