WIN OVER THE ENEMY

The way of Gods kingdom is to win over by reason, dialogue and love. Winning over also “eliminates” the enemy because it resolves the enmity, and so the enemy is transformed into a friend.Fr. Joel Jason

This is one of the best advices regarding winning over. We were taught in this world to fight with or enemies and win over but it turns out that we still feel bad because someone still got hurt. When Jesus came, he showed us how to love our enemy. Very unusual and is not easy to do but a very good thing to learn. Winning over is stopping the cycle of violence and revenge by showing mercy and understanding to those who need it. For the Father in heaven will bless us in living His teachings.
