The Love of Christ is Innumerably Merciful, Incalculably Gracious
The day I learn to fear no Evil is the day I will be free of my own Hypocrisy or Self Righteousness.
I fear Evil because I fear displeasing People. It says to Fear the Lord and shun Evil.
It doesn't necessarily say to shun the person exhibiting or speaking of Evil as Evil, but rather to call out the words uttered or actions displayed as such if that is what they are.
But then to apply Grace and seek Peace as far as it can be sought.
It says Love surpasses Knowledge and Mercy surpasses Judgement.
That all Human Anger is unjust and to leave Justice in God's Hands.
I think to truly Love our Enemies we have to consider the idea of them not being forgiven for Eternity and the horrifying tragedy of that happening to anyone.
I used to be sick on the idea of it happening to my Enemies and would wish it upon them.
That broke Me after I got a long look at what Hell is.
Maybe choosing to Forgive and show Love to someone truly horrible would be the Grace they need to escape that Hellfire.
And when they truly grasp the significance of what Forgiveness means, they will learn to Love just as much.
We truly do have to suffer for Love, for the kind Christ has for Us.
