You feel PERSECUTED??
Oh, my!!!
In a conversation regarding intercessory prayer, this Scripture was posted by yours truly:
43 - You have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and hate thy enemy.
44 - But I say to you, Love your enemies: do good to them that hate you: and pray for them that persecute and calumniate you:
45 - That you may be the children of your Father who is in heaven, who maketh his sun to rise upon the good, and bad, and raineth upon the just and the unjust.
46 - For if you love them that love you, what reward shall you have? do not even the publicans this?
47 - And if you salute your brethren only, what do you more? do not also the heathens this?
- Matthew, 5
Silly Catholics like to keep things in context! We pray for everyone- not just fellow Catholics- everyone! Pray one for another! Those who read the entire post, get the entire point!
