In light of all the Catholic hate that’s been spreading throughout Tumblr:

Let us always remember that love never fails. Let us never forget the command of Jesus to love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us.

Of course this is easier said than done. Admittedly, I struggle daily with trying to love my enemies and pray for my persecutors.

But when I look upon the cross of Christ with a repentant heart, I remember that I myself am a sinner. I remember that not only did He die for me, but He died for my enemies as well. I remember that he was willing to suffer at the hands of His own persecutors. Jesus, the son of God, was willing to bear the burden of the sins of the whole entire world.

Dying on the cross, Jesus said, “I thirst.”

And now, He continues to thirst for the conversion of sinners. He continues to thirst for the contrite heart. He continues to thirst for our love.

Therefore, let us continue to pray for the salvation of the whole world.
