Prayer

Sometimes it is hard seeing friends going through something that you have no control over. Maybe circumstances prevent you from doing or saying anything, or maybe you just don't have the guts to do so. Sometimes all you can do is pray.

It is just as important to pray for those who aren't your friends, those who aren't your favorite people in the world. Sometimes we are called to pray for those who would rather see us dead (most often not literally, but you never know). I'm just not sure which is harder, to not be able to do something for a friend, or to be lead to do something for an enemy.

Matt 5:43-44
43 "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor, and hate your enemy.'44 "But I say to you, love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you(NAS)
