Years ago, a coworker and I were discussing a difficult colleague.
“Pray that something bad happens to him so he doesn’t become our boss,” my coworker suggested.
I was shocked, “I can’t pray that!”
“Then pray that he gets a better opportunity somewhere else,” he answered.
I don’t think that’s what Christ was thinking when he said,
John 15:12 (NIV)
My command is this:
Love each other as I have loved you.
