“Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.”
— Matthew 5:44 NASB1995
🌿 A Family That Loves Anyway
Kingdom families don’t just love the easy people—they learn to love the difficult ones too. When kids fight, when neighbors offend, when people are unfair—that’s when love shines brightest.
Jesus wants us to train our children to respond to hate with prayer and to hurt with healing.
🕯 A Mother’s Role
Help your children learn that prayer is powerful. Teach them that we don’t repay hurt with hurt—we repay it with love. Lead them in praying for those who are hard to love.
📖 Talk About It:
- Has anyone been mean to our family?
- How can we pray for them this week?
🪡 Kingdom Practice
Make a prayer list together of people who have been difficult. Pray for them every day this week and talk about what God shows you.
✍️ Prayer:
Lord, help our family reflect Your heart. Teach us to love when it’s hard, to forgive when we’re hurt, and to pray when we’re angry. Amen.

● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
