Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you. – Matthew 5:44
The thing that sets the fruit of the Spirit apart from its counterpart is that the fruit of the Spirit is not environmentally sensitive. It’s one thing to have peace and joy when everything is going your way. It’s another thing altogether to maintain your peace and joy when the bottom falls out. It’s one thing to love your children; it’s another thing to love your enemy.
