Hatred = murdering your brother in your heart.

How is that not wrong?

Let’s say someone derided me in some way. Do I hate them? No, I feel hurt and ask the Lord to forgive them. There is no need to harbor hate......ever!

I FORGOT ONE THING THERE: I can ask the Lord, Jesus Christ, to help me forgive them.

I can do three things.

1. First don’t talk about them

2. Be pleasant when you meet them, say “Hello.” (Even if you are still hurt.

3. Pray for them. I usually put their name somewhere behind a picture — or make a prayer list and add them to it. Whenever I walk past the picture I can pray for them, and obviously, if they are on my prayer list I will pray for therm.
