Daily Inspiring Thought: Revenge is never the right way to get over pain.

Daily Reflection: Do you console yourself with thoughts of revenge or by hoping the worse for the one who has wronged you? Be honest because God knows your thoughts.

We all have experienced loss, disappointment or hurt at the hands of another. I also believe most of us have had unpleasing thoughts of revenge as well. Yes, it may make you feel better, temporarily. However, that is not how God wants us to deal with hurt. He wants us to turn to and lean on Him. Vengeance belongs to the Lord, not us. Amen.
