Pray for All People
Let us only
set a guard on our tongues, a door and a bar upon our lips, that we may utter
nothing offensive to God. It is for our own advantage, not for theirs for whom
we pray, to act thus. For let us ever consider, that he who blesses his enemy,
blesses himself, he who curses his enemy, curses himself, and he who prays for
his enemy, prays not for him, but for himself. If we thus act, we shall be able
to reduce to practice this excellent virtue, and so to obtain the promised
blessings, through the grace and loving kindness of our Lord Jesus Christ.
