The work has been set and the path You were to tread. You are clearly aware of its pre-requisites. When you hear God's Word, you should immediately act on it otherwise you will lose the joy of working with the Lord. Trust in God's wisdom and guidance as you navigate life's shifting sand.
Working for perfection in the Lord is always being at peace and in love no matter what the circumstances are. Reconcile with your enemies by way of loving them as they are. Many sees these teachings as hard but having the heart of God brings you to even higher dimensions of learning.
There will always be people who will repay the good that you have done with evil. You may even face opposition and hostility from those you were trying to help. Stand up for what’s right, even when it’s not popular or easy. Seek God’s guidance and protection in the face of adversity. Trust in God even in the midst of fear and danger.
The Lord sets you free. God is more concerned of the devastating effects if you allow your anger to rob the peace that the Lord wants you to enjoy. If you chose to love your enemy and he becomes your friend, do you still have an enemy? Commend your spirit into God’s hands, expressing your faith that God will deliver you from your enemies and persecutors.
Greatness in the kingdom of heaven is not about power and authority, but about service and sacrifice, about humility, about walking in the Lord's holy light. Honors in the kingdom of heaven are determined by God’s will and not by human ambition or request.
Nothing is hidden from the Lord. Charity is an act of kindness that merits His favor. You will surely be repaid as you deserve.
