Lent 2014 - March 15

MARCH 15 – Matthew 5:44-45
By: Brenda Galarza



But I say, love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you! In that way, you will be acting as true children of your Father in heaven. For he gives his sunlight to both the evil and the good, and he sends rain on the just and the unjust alike.

After reading these verses, I realized that Jesus has given us a difficult task. Love your enemies and pray for them! It shouldn’t be difficult but it is. Why should we love our enemies and those who are trying to hurt us? The answer is simple…because God loves us. Let us show God’s love to others by loving those no matter how they behave or act.



Prayer
Lord, during this time of Lent, help us to show your love to all people and to be reminded of your unfailing love for us.
