Enemy Minded

The perceived difference between enemies is the very yoke of their union- their oneness. One who despises the 'other' presumes that other to embody that which is detested, that which is unrighteous. Because of facades, the despiser dismisses the 'other' as incapable of similar yearnings. What is hated in the 'enemy' is the perceived absence of righteousness. But when the truth is told - that said enemy has acted to uphold righteousness, so if the despiser has been acted against then he must at once contend with facing himself as the very embodiment of that which he despised.
There is a just measurement for righteousness- the word of God. For we ourselves do not have enemies, it is only ever the Truth itself which stands opposed. God uses us to vanquish falsehood and unrighteousness. Truth will never be ground to earth. Those who are in falsehood are humbled in order to be disillusioned. The truly righteous court no enemy. The righteous walk free, a link in the brotherhood of humanity.

Asking why leads to forgiveness and peace. Walking the path according to His word means living and speaking truth. It can be hardest to speak pure truth when referring to painful experiences and to those by whom we consider ourselves victimized. When pain distorts the truth of the tongue we must turn even more ardently to the word of God for centering. Asking why leads to causation, beyond our assumptions. Learning to hear the truth and accept the why is the fruit of true discipleship and spiritual receptivity.

There is a greater fellowship beyond our self-imposed limitations. A beautiful communion of innocent exchange. No longer do our resentments keep us at arm's length. No longer will we look upon the feast and refuse- we will eat without prejudice... one standing no better than another for preference, or taste. Enjoying the view from the other side... acknowledging the love there, affirming the spirit, accepting the veracity of an experience we once considered foreign. We conform to His word... "love."
