Episode 4: Episode 0004 Anything for love, but that!

Just a Thinker

Let’s do a thought experiment: Imagine that on your job site, the city inspector seems to have invented 107 new violations today that were not there yesterday, which could cost many thousands of dollars per day in delays. That’s easy for many to imagine because something like that has happened to them, or maybe it is right now.

Now imagine praying for that inspector’s well-being and her highest good.

Why would you even consider doing so?

Jesus said “But I say to you, love [that is, unselfishly seek the best or higher good for] your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may [show yourselves to] be the children of your Father who is in heaven.”

Maybe you are considering this quote from the great rock and roll philosopher Meat Loaf: “I would do anything for love, but I won’t do that.”
