Pray for Your Enemies
MTL MAGAZINE : BRINGING WOMEN MORE TO LIFE : DH
Pray for your enemies
by June Hunt
Have you noticed an assortment of difficult people to be in your life? If so, I understand! Many years ago, I felt deeply hurt by a family member whose tongue and tartness were consistently cruel. I simply prayed, "God, I don't know what to do."
A short time later, I saw a Scripture I'd never noticed before: I Samuel 12:23, "As for me, far be it from me that I should sin against the LORD by failing to pray for you."
The truth is, I had not been praying for her—nor had that thought even crossed my mind. Yet, motivated by this verse, I began praying... and eventually healing began, both in our relationship and in my heart.
If I were to pick a "companion verse," it would have to be the often-quoted, "Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you" (Matthew 5:44). While most people feel drawn to these merciful words of Jesus, many feel resistant when challenged to actually do it. "You want me to do what? Pray for the person who hurt me? That's asking too much!"
I understand that rationale. I once would have chafed against the very notion. It runs counter to our nature. From a human standpoint, genuinely praying for our enemies seems impossible. But we realize that the Bible says, "With God, nothing is impossible" (Luke 1:37) and God often asks us to do things that go against our natural way of thinking and feeling.
Praying for your enemy is not optional—it is commanded by Christ. But what did He really mean by these words?

To all of the customers of the local florist who got sneezing powder in their flowers last Tuesday, I apologize. You were really not the intended victims. I just wanted to make you angry at the florist, my stingy employer. I wasn’t trying to hurt you. Bill
I’m sorry. You were waiting for the car to get out of the parking place so you could back in. I slid in frontward–I had to do this because I was desperate to get into the store so I could use the men’s room, and there were no other spaces. My apologies. I hope you read this and understand.

Improving Your Marriage Not Your Husband - MTL Magazine
by Sandy Ralya
Would you like a stronger, more intimate marriage? Most women see room for improvement in their marriage, but few seldom get the results they desire. One reason? Many try to improve their marriage by changing their husband. This strategy NEVER works! If you engaged in any sort of pre-marital counseling, you were told you can’t change your spouse, but knowing that fact hasn’t stopped the vast majority of women from trying.

The Draw To Relationship - MTL Magazine
by Dr. John Townsend
You and I are “drawn” to seek out relationships with others. We have an internal drive that propels us toward others. In fact, we have lots of other drives as well: we go online when we are information-driven. We walk to the kitchen when we are hunger-driven. We go shopping when we are clothing-driven. And we talk to people when we are relationship-driven. This isn’t really an option. We are simply designed this way by God.

FlourishSweets.com Mango Key Lime Pie
If you are like me then you have access to lots and lost of fresh mangoes this time of the year. My neighbor has a couple of trees that are producing tons of fruit right now. And don’t get me wrong, I am VERY appreciative of the generous gift. But I am running out of ideas of what to do with all of these mangoes. Suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Here is the list of mango desserts I have tried:
■Mango fritters – Recipe and Post forthcoming!
■Mango ice cream
■mango bread pudding
■Mango smoothie
■Mango Key Lime pie
Speaking of Mango Key Lime pie – I had to make it. Not just because we are fans of Key Lime Pie in my house but because I had a pie when we were in the Keys that was called Mango Pie. It was the consistency of Key Lime Pie, just full of rich mango flavor. I’ve been waiting for the opportunity to try and make it ever since that vacation 2 years ago.

School Days, Special Days - MTL Magazine
School Days, Special Days - MTL Magazine Welcome back to school.
sat in the car and watched my little first-grader run up the steps. Her backpack swayed from side to side, too light to stay down. How heavy could a new pencil and small pad of lined paper be?
She had gotten out of the car almost before the wheels stopped turning, shouted a quick “Bye, Mom!” over her shoulder, and never looked back.
I, on the other hand, sat in the car with my mouth half open, a big tear threatening to escape one eye as I watched this monumental event in her life. I was only slightly aware that the carpool line now had a big gap where the car in front of me had long ago reached the corner traffic light. The driver behind me was tapping his fingers on the steering wheel wondering if I was ever going to move. And I was not going anywhere until I saw my daughter safely through the door of the school.

Put Away the Measuring Stick - MTL Magazine
by Becky Harling
I walked into the room, coffee in hand. I paused and quickly scanned the other guests. That’s when I freaked out! Many of them were authors and speakers like me, only most of them were far more successful. I immediately felt sabotaged by internal questions, “Why was I invited to this party?” “Am I wearing the right clothes?” “God, why am I not more successful like these other authors?” As soon as that last thought travelled through my mind, I realized I was doing it again – I was playing the comparison game.

The Journey Into Manhood - MTL Magazine
The Journey Into Manhood - MTL Magazine
by Shawn Brower
Louis L’Amour once said, “The trail is the thing, not the end of the trail. Travel too fast and you miss all you are traveling for.”
From an early age, most boys have a strong and earnest desire to be like the men in their lives. Road-trip shouts from the backseat of “are we there yet” become all too relevant for young men in their pursuit of manhood. Sadly, as time passes, the lack of clarity, a deliberate vision, and a strong guide to follow leaves young men fearful, anxious and uncertain. Spend much time with high school guys, and if they are transparent, you will find this to be shockingly true. In time, their youthful sense of adventure and risk that would reveal more of who they are and uncover who they can become, defaults to calculated, safe steps to bring about life’s security and comfort as grown men. To the observer, “success” appears to have been achieved. But is this a man? Is this what we are aiming for? Is this the life of which boys once dreamed? Is this what a man was designed by God to do? Isn’t there more? For many men, such questions haunt and reverberate through their hearts and minds.

Nearing Home
Billy Graham
Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 9780849948329
In Nearing Home this man of faith—now in his nineties—explores the challenges of aging while gleaning foundational truths from Scripture. Billy Graham invites us to journey with him as he considers the golden years while anticipating the hope of being reunited with his wife, Ruth, in his heavenly home that eclipses this world. “When granted many years of life, growing old in age is natural, but growing old with grace is a choice,” says the author. “Growing older with grace is possible for all who will set their hearts and minds on the Giver of grace, the Lord Jesus Christ.”
Join Billy Graham as he shares the challenges of fading strength but still standing strong in his commitment to finishing life well. www.mtlmagazine.com
