    Your sentences bring to mind when the disciples asked "Who is my neighbor?" Your sentences cause me to ask:

    1. Lord, who are my enemies?
    2. What can my enemies teach me?
    3. Are my enemies your enemies?
    4. If I fail in loving my enemies then do I fail in loving you?
    5. Lord, how can I trust my enemies and who will be with me?
