LOVE cares for our Enemies … ( 07 / 22 / 2011 )
“ Now , now my good man . This is no time for making enemies .” ~ Voltaire ( in response to a priest asking that he renounce Satan before his death )
“ I will raise the banner of Love over all other flags … Love does not stop at any border .” ~ Shane Claiborne
“ Many people want to serve God – most of them in an advisory capacity only .” ~ London ’ s “ Sunday Express ”
Loving someone does not mean you support their actions or agree with their philosophies . It often means that you denounce these things , and yet choose to send them Compassion and Caring anyway … And once we realize this Truth , we finally hear the Great Call to attend to ALL our enemies ( especially those who seem to be acting like “ demons ” — even Satan himself ).
Darkness feeds on fear . Evil feeds on fear . Our enemies feed on our fear . Condemnation & rejection come from fear . As such , the only way to “ combat ” the darkness of fear is with the Light of Love . The only way to “ defeat ” evil is with the Light of Kindness . And the only way to “ conquer ” our enemies is with the Light of Love .
Is this ifficult to do ? Oh yes ! Is it “ rocket science ”? I think not …
