(1,2) Matthew 5:44 “Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you" I’ve read this verse since I was a little girl, I couldn’t understand how I could do this when I’ve been abused since I was a little girl. My faith has increased tremendously in the last two years, and this Sunday anybody who has abused me, physically or mentally, envied me, treated me poorly, anybody I consider an ememy in my life I prayed over all their souls.
