LOVE THY ENEMY?
Sunday’s Monday Does anyone else struggle with this? Man, this has been a thorn in my side for as long as I can remember. In the beginning, it wasn’t much of a problem because my youth dulled the point of Matthew 5:44 (ESV), But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.

CAMOUFLAGED CULPABILITY!
Sunday’s Monday God has started dealing with me over my unrealized setting up of others for the blaming of my shortfalls.
