Loving one's enemies requires grace — an inbreaking of the long-long-vision of a greater love, higher justice, and deeper acceptance beyond deserving. Compassion does not remove the rage or silence the outrage; it gives a prophetic voice of hope. The hope that justice, if not obtained for oneself, can be guaranteed for those who follow and that gives strength to continue the struggle, meaning to transform pain, courage even in suffering.
