“But rather, love your enemies and do good to them,

and lend without expecting anything back.” (Luke 6:35)

Easier said than done, right? But, if we are to imitate

Christ, most of us need to practice mercy and

compassion more frequently. Start with the little

daily annoyances that we experience, the unkind

word or hateful glance we receive. Instead of plotting

revenge on that person, try saying a quick prayer for

that person. Mercy and compassion will put us on the

path to holiness.
