Praying for your enemies...

       Lord Jesus, we pray not for riches, neither for long life. But we do pray for the lives of our enemies. Let us bring such an influence to bear upon them that thru our efforts they will recognize You as the Redeemer and will dedicate their lives to Your service. Give us wise and understanding hearts so that we may judge the good from the bad, the just from the unjust. Fill our souls with love for our Creator and for our fellowman. Let there be no veiled motive in our lives and let our actions and our words ring with sincerity of purpose. Accept the worship which in humility of spirit we give You. We ask this in Your name. Amen.
