“But I say, love your enemies!” (Matthew 5:44; NLT).
Instead, we will speak the truth in love, growing in every way more and more like Christ (Ephesians 4:15; NLT).
Lord,
My toughest challenge
Is to see you
In the people I find toxic,
Behaving towards each one
Like Christ himself,
By speaking the truth directly,
And with love.
