None of us is perfect, but there are some people who get under our skin and whose behavior not only disappoints us, but interferes with the good we are trying to do. We do not know all the circumstances causing this disruptive behavior, though in many instances, it is apparent: alcoholism or the many other addictions that have ripple effects on others. Depression, lack of self-esteem, ego inflation, bi-polar disorders....the list goes on and on. Jesus admonishes us to pray for our enemies, and those who persecute us. While these folks are not our enemies or persecutors, they obviously do need prayer and one of the ways we can help them and help our relationship with them is to pray for them. Prayer is the amazing and powerful tool that works. Praying with patience, love, and invoking the powerful name of Jesus can bring about the healing of people and relationships. Let our prayer expand to include those who make life tough for us and in faith await the working of grace.
