God’s word is clear, we should love our enemy,
When everything inside says you’ve got to be kidding me.
We really, really want them to pay,
But God says no, that’s not my way.
He knows the pain they have inflicted on us,
But, it is in him we must place our trust.
When we learn to love and pray for them,
We transfer our brokenness straight to him.
In his time and way, he will balance the scale,
Justice and righteousness will then prevail.
People have a way of wounding us by words, actions and deeds. We’ve all had those experiences which have left us broken and bruised by people we trusted. It’s hard to learn to love those that inflict harm, push our buttons and irritate us but, when we reach that point, we find peace.

I am a mom of 4 grown kids, grandma of 14 and great grandma of 5. I have opened and ran 2 successful businesses. volunteered with Hospice, tutored adult GED students in English and writing, spent time helping in a homeless shelter, worked to raise money for tornado victims, MDA and others and spent 25 years actively involved in the rescue of abandoned and abused dogs. I was care giver to my husband of 35 years as he lost his fight with cancer. Through all of the ups and downs of life, 2 things have kept me moving forward. PERSEVERANCE- the ability to get up each new day and try again and FAITH - that sure knowledge that God was with me in every trial and struggle. I hope you will join me as I share the insights I have learned and continue to grow in this wonderful adventure of life.
