In the context of Matthew 5:41 • To love one’s neighbor is the first mile – to love one’s enemy is the second mile. • To bless those who bless you is the first mile – to bless those who curse you is the second mile. • To do good to those who do good to you is the first mile – to do good to those who hate you is the second mile. • Praying for those who pray for you is the first mile – praying for those who despitefully use you is the second mile.

(1 Cor. 16:15) • Our help and hospitality will be given expecting nothing in return. (Luke 14:12-14) • We will gladly and energetically water the camels! (Genesis 24:10)
