“Love Your Neighbor”
(Father Is Perfect)


43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? 47 And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? 48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.(Matt. 5:43-48)


Be above and beyond what a person would normally do. Isn’t it natural to be nice to your friends? Isn’t easy to be kind to people that you already know? Be above the crowd. Function at a higher level. Be perfect.


I will function daily, knowing the grace that was given to me by the god almighty Father. The grace that was given me should surely be shared to those that encounter whether friends, strangers, or enemies.


Mighty god our Father, bless me with an ample annointing of grace, just as it was freely given to me by my Heavenly father.
