Lord, deliver me from evil stones thrown at me by unfriendly friends in the name of Jesus
Sometimes those who say and do things which hurt and upset us most, are those we thought were real friends. I’m sorry to say this, but it can sometimes be even worse than that, because sometimes those who cause us the deepest pain are those who profess to be Christians!
Although it can be deeply distressing and upsetting when so-called friends hurt us, it doesn’t mean be should cross them off our list of friends, even although that is probably one of the first things we may want to do! We should in fact pray not only for them, but for ourselves, that God will help us forgive these people and give us the strength to overcome the hurt and heartache that has come our way.
Let’s try to love everyone, after all Jesus loved the unloveable and God loves every one of us, so we must try to do the same.
