How can we pray for enemie that only wants to kill and harm us
How do l make sense of this teaching of a Jewish Rabbi called Jesus from around 2000 years ago
Did he know what the enemies of faith would be
Was it possible he had not measured into his guidelines for life
Islamic terrorist who excisted to destroy
kill
harm those who they class as infidels
How would such a prayer manifest itself
You see l feel too weak to carry out this teaching
I have walked La Rambles
witnessed the beauty of Barcelona
Where last evening over 13 innocent people were killed by up to then an invisible enemy
Love such people
Every part of me wants to teach these people a harsh lesson
Love your enemies
How Lord?
We can pray that our enemies will discover the father heart of God
That they will be so filled of the knowledge of being created in his image
They will follow the first three commandments the spirit gave to Moses
Those same guarding principles Jesu called us to accept
Jesus calls us to Love God,
Love one another
Love our neighbour
If we are doing that all that hatred will not be able to have a hold upon us
If our enemy is filled with these commandments of the Lord
All else will fit into place
I am a weak guy trying like you to make sense of why
Why some people who last evening
We're Sipping coffees in the beautiful city of Barcelona
Then last nite were killed
But in wrestling with this can we turn to God,seek help,wrestle with this teaching?
So let's pray for all the hurt caused by the events in Barcelona and nearby.
Hear us father God so we may take to others the teaching of your son
That mercy will be evident
The skills of the health servers will be better enabled
Turn hearts from hatred to hope
Dear Lord hear by your spirit this prayer.
