My Father's Child

The Lord showed me something today:

"But love ye your enemies,
and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again;
and your reward shall be great,
and ye shall be the children of the Highest:
for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.
Be ye therefore merciful,
as your Father also is merciful."

So, when people dont treat me right...
I should treat them with love and do right to them.
And I already knew that, of course...
What Christian doesn't know that?
But oftimes, there isn't a lot of motivation on my part.

But what He really showed me
was the next part:

If I act like that, people will begin to say,
"She's acting like her Father."

That's what I want, more than anything.
To be like my Father!
