Faults in Friends and Enemies

STRANGE how quickly we can see a fault in an enemy! A friend may be all faults, but we are blind to them, while the least approach to one is so soon discerned in an enemy. For a friend we have a dozen excuses, but for an enemy not one can be invented, even though there be just cause for excuse. Poor human nature! When we possess Christ's spirit, and can really love our enemies, we shall be less likely to be so observant of their faults.
