Prayers & Reflections for January 10

The Armor of God
Reflections and Prayers for Wartime

Chapter V
Looking Into My Soul

My neighbor is often my enemy.

"And as you would that men should do to you, do you also to them in like manner. And if you love them that love you what thanks to you? For sinners also love those that love them...and if you lend to them of whom you hope to receive, what thanks are to you? for sinners also lend to sinners, for to receive as much."

"But love ye your ene­mies: do good and lend, hoping for nothing thereby: and your reward shall be great, and you shall be the sons of the highest: for he is kind to the unthankful, and to the evil" (Luke 6:31-35).
