Have your horns ever stuck through your Halo? I know that my have! Now I know that you are asking, what Halo?
But all kidding aside, when Jesus tells us to feed our enemy, my fleshly carnal man want to feed my enemy a knuckle sandwich!
Question is, how do you deal with that fleshly carnal man that each and every one of us have, that want to serve knuckle sandwiches?

Tell you what did it for me (well many things did, but this has had a lasting impact to this day). I did a guided meditation where I envisioned a warm glow or flame in myself, and then envisioned every person in the world with that same glow. I know it doesn't make any sense but it was absolutely insane and brought me to tears. I viewed people that I talked with (even people I couldn't stand) very differently after that.

Wait hold on let me first judge you as some posters on CC do with sunday school type answers ;) ....."you horrible person how could you feed a knuckle sandwich to another human being....that's not what Jesus would do blah blah blah".....

BTW I'm just kidding brother but a lot of people here give impractical sunday school answers and condemn others like pharisees when they probably have given a knuckle sandwich as well....

my real answer is balance....there are some people who you need to give a knuckle sandwich to because they look to take advantage of your goodness and are unrepentant these are what I call human garbage and there are some out there....

If a person who has offended you comes and apologizes or shows remorse then yes sure you can forgive them, maybe still not like them but you could help them out....just to be "right with God"

But if that person sees your kindness even after they tick you off there are some people who if you give an inch they take a mile and will try to take advantage of you....by all means give the knuckle sandwich....because that person sucks as a human and you shouldn't invest your time/energy into them...

It's all about balance my friend....

I found the halo crap just makes you a doormat for people.....hahaha no longer me.....Be assertive for yourself and don't be a doormat.....don't let others take advantage of your kindness only give it to those who deserve it.....


now.....let the hater posts for my reply commence.....muhahahahha
