Inclusive love transcends a family,
For families mix love and war with ease;
The best of love is the love of enemy,
Which one can do. But who is there who sees?

To love an enemy is not that difficult. See the enemy as Abba does. Abba knows every reason this soul has to have acted as she or he did. Abba does not justify conduct to you. No permissive tolerance here. Abba enables his brand of tolerance which is not weakness but strength and freedom. When - in the only prayer Jesus taught, which we use daily in solitude - we forgive those who trespass against us (our debtors), there's no denial of the hurt, only the fact that we have opted (willed) to tolerate. We thus free our energy for other things than vengeful fuming. We need not broadcast our freedom. Better we don't. .Abba's knowing is more than enough. PS. This does not mean you cannot walk away from an enemy. There is a reason for the continuing relevance of the concept of shaking dust from our feet.
