July 24 (injustices)
Almighty Savior, Saints Boris and Gleb were brothers
called the "passion bearers" because they submitted to injustices to
the point of death. When they were attacked, they refused to fight back.
Rather than contribute to the violence, they refused to force their will upon
the other. I ask them to pray against the spirit of revenge that is in my life
and in the lives of those I care about. Lord, teach us to forgive our enemies
and do good for them, like You did on the cross. Show us how to overcome
injustices through love, even though this does not makes sense in our worldly
minds. Saints Boris and Gleb, pray for us. Amen.
