Be Still. Breathe. “Come, Holy Spirit.” Become aware of God’s Spirit with you.
Read the passage slowly.
27 “But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28 bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. 29 If someone slaps you on one cheek, turn to them the other also. If someone takes your coat, do not withhold your shirt from them. 30 Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. 31 Do to others as you would have them do to you.
What word/phrase stands out? What invitation is the Spirit highlighting?
Pray a blessing over someone difficult to love. Ask God to give you empathy instead of resentment.
