Read Matthew 5:43-47.
But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven…(Matthew 5:44-45).
Right reaction is the supreme art of life, and Jesus compressed the secret of that art into a sentence when he said: Resist not evil. A correct understanding of this commandment will regenerate your body, liberate your soul, and remake your life.
Love is God and is therefore absolutely all-powerful. Meeting hatred with Love is the perfect method of self-defense in all circumstances. It renders you absolutely invulnerable to any kind of attack.
If you receive bad news, if you are unhappy in your work, or in your home, feel out mentally for the Presence of divine Spirit, all around you; affirm its actuality; and claim that God has dominion over all conditions, and you will soon be free.
And this commandment have we from him, that he who loveth God loves his brother also (1 John 4:21).
The old sports truism says the best defense is a good offense. That also applies in our spiritual life but in a totally different meaning. If we surround ourselves with outflowing love, we become invulnerable to negativity. If we build our consciousness around God’s dominion over everything we experienece, we become masters of all around us. If we live according to God’s will, we become liberated from all fear, doubt and anxiety. Let’s go on the offense today by innoculating ourselves with love.

It sounds like you’re saying love is universal in the sense not that we can personally feel it but that you believe in a God that is love and that ultimately triumphs?
It happens I’m posting on this same topic…
Both are true. It is personally felt and universally triumphant. For it to be truly universal it would have to be felt in the physical sense as well as exist the spiritual plane. Anyway, what a poorer world it would be if it only existed and was not felt. “As a Father loves his son…”
With love.
