The Love of Jesus

Then Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do."—Luke 23:34

Jesus prays for the VERY ones that are putting Him to death. God is kind to the unthankful and the evil. He blesses people who don't deserve it, (me) and He pours out His kindness on all. His love never fails...it has eternal effects. 

(Jesus) bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
(Jesus) never fails.—1 Corinthians 13:7-8

"But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,
"bless those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you.—Luke 6:27-28

For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps:

 "Who committed no sin, Nor was deceit found in His mouth"; who, when He was reviled, did not revile in return; when He suffered, He did not threaten, but committed Himself to Him who judges righteously; who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness--by whose stripes you were healed.—1 Peter 2:21-24
