Has anyone ever hurt your feelings? Maybe you found out somebody lied to you or you didn't get the raise at work that you deserved, or maybe you were rejected or physically abused. Well, one of the most important things we need to learn is how to trust God and walk by faith when people don't treat us the way they should.
Our natural response is to get angry when we're mistreated, and feeling angry is not wrong. But God's Word reminds us that we shouldn't return evil for evil or anger for anger.
Have you ever noticed that being angry never makes anything better? I know because I used to have a quick temper. In fact, I was angry more than I wasn't. Sometimes, I voiced my aggression, and sometimes it was just seething on the inside of me. The problem is, if we have unresolved anger, we either explode or we implode; we either blow up at somebody or we fall apart on the inside. And a lot of times we take it out on a person who has nothing to do with what we're angry about. It's just a miserable way to live.
But getting upset is not the way God wants us to fight our battles. Instead, when somebody hurts us, we can choose to trust God with our pain or injustice and overcome anger with good. Romans 12:17-21 (AMP) says, "Repay no one evil for evil, but take thought for what is honest and proper and noble [aiming to be above reproach] in the sight of everyone. If possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave the way open for [God's] wrath; for it is written, Vengeance is Mine, I will repay (requite), says the Lord. But if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals upon his head. Do not let yourself be overcome by evil, but overcome (master) evil with good."_- IN CONCLUSION TO THIS POST, ALWAYS REPAY EVIL WITH GOOD BECAUSE THERE IS A REWARD FROM HEAVEN FOR IT! FOLLOW JESUS AND LET HIM BE YOUR ROLE MODEL!
