Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing.
1 Peter 3:9 | NIV
It is man's natural nature to repay and get revenge. After all, an eye for an eye? In Matthew chapter 9, Jesus states that it is not sacrifice but mercy He desires. Satan will send many people to anger you and cause trouble with you- but as long as God is in You, and You read His Word and obey Colossians 3:13, there should always be forgiveness and patience in your heart. Sometimes God allows these things to happen to see if we'll pass the test, see if we really love Him as we say we do. The Word of God is not just the black leather book you read. It is the book of salvation and of light, the way that God talks to you. This Bible is more valuable than you can think or imagine.
