NO REVENGE


When someone has hurt us and committed a terrible wrong
against us, our natural response is to get even. If we follow
that natural inclination, we turn into the same kind of person
that wronged us. Rather, God says to do nothing, but wait on
Him and He will see that we are vindicated. He will allow the
transgressor to reap what was sown.


Heavenly Father, Oh how we need your grace when we have
been hurt by others. Help us to rise above our human nature
and leave revenge alone. We trust that you will take care of
the situation for us. In Jesus' name.


Read Proverbs 20:22


"Do not say, "I'll pay you back for this wrong!" Wait for the
Lord, and he will deliver you." (NIV)


"Say not thou, I will recompense evil; but wait on the LORD,
and he shall asve thee." (KJV)
