There is no fear in love; for perfect love casteth out fear. 
                                                                             - I John 4:18
 

 "But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic.

Luke 6: 27-29
