Such hard words to live by
at least for we who are human
to follow the example of God
to love our enemies
Let your enemies bring out your best
the fruits of the Spirit
offering them your own witness
how to walk in the light
offering them love, forgiveness
praying for their souls
following the example of Jesus
the journey worth the effort
