Strong warriors know the truth of serving one another in love. It takes great strength to honor others above ourselves. This love comes not from something we conjure up through great thought or desire; it comes from Holy Spirit power that enables us to love the most unlovely of our neighbors and even to bless our enemies.

Let us not take revenge, warriors, but let us leave room for our Great Chief and Captain to pour out his wrath in perfect judgment. It is his place to avenge. He will repay. And who are we to object if he chooses to pour out mercy on others in the same way he did with us?

Is there an enemy we need to bless this day? Let us do so in Spirit power, overcoming darkness with light. Let us not be overcome with evil but let us overcome evil with good.

Eagle People … Today’s reading is Romans 12:9-21. Pleya gi. “Go with Blessings.”
