“And he saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor.” (Isaiah 59:16)

What happens when we don’t like someone’s actions or words? Usually we speak poorly of them, argue with them, dislike them. We may even ask God to act in vengeance to right the wrong that has been done to us. From a human stand point, that would only be fair.

But in steps grace, the freely given, unmerited favor and love of God. The love that knows no bounds, is longsuffering, and wills that all be saved. Slanderers, murderers, and thieves. Adulterers, liars, and everyone else who does not fit another’s ideal of perfection.

So how do you get the sinner to Jesus? Through prayer! And I don’t mean just one half-hearted prayer. Pray for them as often as they cross your mind. If you’re angry with them, this probably means often. Pray that their spiritual eyes be opened, that their hearts be softened, that their souls be saved. Pray the blood. Pray that the Holy Spirit pours himself out like a flood upon them. When every where they look they just see Jesus.

Smile.
