But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.
Matthew 5:44
_to love your enemies as you have been told to do as a Christian means to look for the good things in them even when all you see are the ods. yes, to love them is to look for their good qualities that you may see other than those that irritate you. when you try to focus to on finding the gold in them, you will divert your attention from those that annoy you to something maybe you could love in them. basically, you love a person because he had shown something that you are so delighted and you wanted to keep him so that it would happen again. on contrary you hate a person because they did not please you. so another way to love them, is to look for their lovable sides and beautiful angles.
_for you not to sin while you are still trying to accept and looks for reason to love them, do not judge them or discriminate them away. let your anger breathe and fade as you try to dig them. try not to conclude and close your doors or hold back another chances for them to make up. they may have been done bad unintentionally and they would might do something you will not expect to make up the bad things they did.
_praying for them is another way to make yourself ease some of the bitterness. say things to God and let Him give to them what they deserve to have. do not put into your hand what is for God to do. He knows better than you. by praying for them, you can even make a request to Him for their change, that might change.
_it is not easy to love them. but it will be easier to forgive them than to hate them.
