Our hearts always like to stay among friends, among those who are upright and honorable. But Jesus Christ was in the midst of enemies, and that’s precisely where he wanted to be. And that’s where we should be too. This distinguishes us from all other sects and religions, where the pious want to stay among themselves.…

Jesus made peace with us while we were enemies (Romans 5:10). Let us bear witness to this peace before everyone!

Dietrich Bonhoeffer
