It Is Said That Revenge Upon One's Enemies
Is
Best Served Cold
Aka Unexpectedly
And
With Vicious Stopping-Power!
To Almighty God's Chosen People
The Answer To This
Is
"Nuh Uh!"
"Nope!"
As Blessed And Highly Favored Children Of
The Eternal Who Grants Grace And Inhabits Glory
We Are Called To Be Mind-Bogglingly Kind
To Those Who To Us Are Not Even Close To Being So!
Oh, The Beauty Of The Unexpected Kindness
When Your Enemy Needs Help
And
You're The Only One Available To Help
And
You Actually, Willingly, Graciously
- For The Love Of God -
Provide That Help With A Tender Look
And
A Gentle Touch!
What Bliss Is Yours To Have And To Hold!
Remember, Beloved,
This Is The Way Of The Savior
And
If We Desire To See Him In Peace
This Must Be Our Way!
We Were Once Enemies Of The Almighty
And
He, By Jesus Christ The Righteous
Granted Us The Unimaginable Kindness
... His Life For Yours ... And Mine!
There's No Repayment Possible:
Choose, Instead, To Obey His Blessed Call
To Be Set Apart For Holy Use
... To Sanctification ... To Perfection!
Dare To Smile With The Lord
In The Face Of The Scorn And Abuse Of Your Enemies:
Chase Away Evil
With Your Hand Dripping With Goodness That Shines
With The Light Of Love!
Peace!
I Am Listening, Dear Lord! Help Me To Understand Your Word, Accept Your Will, And Choose To Obey!
