Every Wednesday we invite you to Pause & Pray with us. Today’s Pause & Pray is written/curated by Roeline Ramirez.

PRAY:

Oh, Dear Jesus, our Lord,
You have called us to love our enemies.
However, it is easier said than done.
Forgive us for not having the will to love our enemies.
Forgive us for holding on tight to our biases that ignite our hatred.
Forgive us for our resistance to be transformed by your love.
May your light shine in us to see the path of transformation.
May your love, poured unto us, overpower our hatred and turn into forgiveness and true love.
Amen.

MEDITATE:

Luke 6:27-28 (NLT)
27 “But to you who are willing to listen, I say, love your enemies! Do good to those who hate you. 28 Bless those who curse you. Pray for those who hurt you.
