April 13 Echoes of Eternity
But I say to you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you and persecute you.
Matthew 5:44
Bless those who love you and those who hate you. That is My command and that is the path to healing. I have allowed some to respond negatively to your sin without the covering of My love. They reacted to what they saw and felt in you, without the covering of mercy. So their feelings are the natural outcome of soul meeting soul. On your part, because of the light I have given you, you must take responsibility for your sins and their reaction. Don’t ask if that is fair! That is not
the point. Do you want healing? Do you desire My will? Those are the questions, and if the answer is Yes, then the path will lead you to where you want to go. Watch out for the “demon of self-justification.” Remember—when My mercy is removed, your sin, your nature naturally causes a negative reaction—hate. That should be ample material for ongoing repentance—and a deep desire to claim My mercy over all your relationships. And remember this word, My child: Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. You will always be in need of that.
