A-Z: E

Lyssa's Log: Time for E!  Enemies! We all have enemies, some more than others, the thing is controlling your anger that burns for them. 1 John 19 "I will love everyone, for HE first loved me". We need to control our anger, it need not burn for revenge, rather cool for love. I do not have any enemies because I have learned to forgive them. We've all said this at least once. But, how many times was it true? How many of us can say that we would lay down our lives for our "enemy"?  God says love your enemies. Ever heard the saying "Keep your friends close and your enemies closer"? Its because we're suppose to forgive them, and love them, pray for them and the people they've hurt. Our enemies are not our enemies, but simply friends who have been confused. So, there's no need to curse them or condemn them. And think about it, that really isn't our place to be or job to do anyway is it? No, its His, and we need to let Him do it instead of getting in the way. Remember, love your enemies, don't try to take over what He's already doing. Peace Out!
