Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you.
Our Lord Jesus Christ would have us not be embittered when mistreated by others. He would have us not return evil for evil but overcome evil with good. He commands us to wish well for and pray for those who do us improperly, caring more for the souls of others than for our physical comforts.
Lord, it is not natural to the natural man to return good for evil, a blessing for cursing, prayer for mistreatment. But that is the tall order you have given to us. Help us keep our spirits loving towards others and desiring their well-being even when we have suffered some wrong at their hands. Amen.🙏
