Interesting timing. I was just thinking about this the other day, and then last night this short popped up in my YouTube feed. The actor who played Barabbas in The Passion of the Christ described seeing Jesus when working with Jim Caviezel during the filming of the movie and, when he looked into Jim's eyes, he saw nothing but mercy and love from Jesus. It was so moving that he converted to Catholicism. It made me reflect on how Jesus never looked at anyone with hate, even those who tormented and killed him. If Jesus ever got angry with anyone, it was those who were corrupt and prideful, but he didn't hate them. Here's the short: https://youtube.com/shorts/_t0y1u9cMs0?si=3DB0XqbwDLmkL1eO
I think we all need to reflect on this from time to time. It's easy to hate our enemies, but that's not what Jesus said to do, and it's what Satan wants. How we can accomplish loving our enemies on our worst days, I'm not sure. Sometimes all we can do is pray for the other side, and for all of us, to see the light.
That's an amazing video!
