When Hate is Too Great a Burden to Bear

“I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.”
 Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (Life Quotes)

Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee. ~ Psalm 21:8 (King James Version) 






My Thoughts: 
When we talk less and listen closely to things that are published, we can gather lots of information, including some negative things that are being said about us. Some of the talk that is “heard through the grapevine,” comes from people who we discover to be our enemies. That’s when we have to use our knowledge to determine how we want to deal with those who hate us. 

Hating those who hate us is too great a burden to bear. But, we know we can’t ever turn our back to our enemies. We have to watch and pray, and always be prepared to defend ourselves with a sound and righteous plan. Our enemies are always plotting and looking for ways to destroy us.

The enemy doesn’t care how he or she destroys. Their only purpose is to win. They have no remorse. They see their accomplishment as a victory. An enemy can’t be a friend. That would be impossible.
