Jos Mayhem- Love Your Enemies

I sometimes wonder what the true meaning of love is;yes love is God, know doubt about that. But in some circumstances it seems easier said than expressed. I read through the dailies in the past few weeks and saw the extent of carnage men will perpetrate in the name of religion. this is the story of the Jos, Nigeria inhumanity of man to his fellow man.
Well let me not bore you with tales of horror of reality.

Lets hear from our Master: JESUS CHRIST

Luke 6:27-36

[27] "But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, [28] bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. [29] If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic. [30] Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. [31] Do to others as you would have them do to you.

[32] "If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' love those who love them. [33] And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' do that. [34] And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' lend to 'sinners,' expecting to be repaid in full. [35] But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. [36] Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.
