Message for your wife: In order to love your enemies, pray for them, turn the other cheek, etc, you have to be alive. Whatever form your enemy's attack on you took, you already survived it. Forgiveness is a powerful, wonderful thing; so is refusal to take revenge. Both of these things can only happen after the initial encounter where you discover the person is your enemy. By definition, they simply cannot happen before you know who your enemy is or what he's done.
