Don’t Repay Evil With Evil
“Recompense to no man evil for evil.” Rom 12:17 KJV
When somebody hurts you, there can be a powerful temptation to hurt them back.
You don’t have to win the battle by becoming like the person who hurt you.
Pray:
“Lord, when I feel provoked, put a guard over my mouth and my actions. Don’t allow me to retaliate, gossip or deliberately hurt anyone. Give me strength to remain honourable even when I feel wronged. Amen.”
Christlike attitude:
I will not become what has hurt me.

Margo Huss is a loving Christian mother of 7 and wife of a Muslim Christian convert. She enjoys musing on hot political and philosophical issues from on the ground and through life in Christ.
A recovering Gen X-er, she offers a refreshingly honest, if not muesli-brained and opinionated view on current cultural issues. Contrary to what some might believe, she is open to new ideas and is a life-long learner.
Typically female, she transcends factual information and thinks she is always right. She may occasionally agree with you, though you will never know. You are wrong even when you are right. You may find her mainstream takes luke warm, but her faith runs deep and hot.
You can block her, abuse her, or simply enjoy interacting with her, but you cannot shut her up.
