It was the gospel reading yesterday. Three words. Very simple. Yet complex in a way.
Jesus asking us to love our enemies is quite hard especially when your foe has done something which is difficult to overturn. Wait, it isn't quite hard, it is very hard!
Imagine having to forgive a person who hurt you or your family, I know for sure it is unbearable to do. But then, Jesus asks us to do so in order to have peace in the community, and most importantly, to have peace in our hearts.
Forgiveness was also another point in the readings. A very simple word, yet again, also difficult to do.
I hope one of these days I will be able to forgive and reconcile with all my enemies.
With that, I hope and pray for strength to do so...
