Loving My Enemy
I’m wrestling with a foreign feeling. There’s this person who has stood against everything I am for. She is pro-choice, amongst many other things.
I will address the elephant in the room and say immediately and say that I have never, do not, and will never have any romantic interest in her. I’m positive she feels the same about me.
I have, and I take this as no point of pride, always hated people who believe what she believes.
Even so, I can’t bring myself to be angry with her as I have been with so many others.
I hate to be one of those annoying people who don’t have a concrete question, but I guess I am just generally asking if and how y’all have dealt with this?
I’ve always wanted to love my enemy, and God has softened my heart over the years, but now that it has actually happened I am struggling with coming to peace with the feeling. I worry that I am lacking something else on the moral front.
Anyway, I appreciate all advice.
