~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Forgive your enemies. It messes with their heads. - Unknown
Today's Verse
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in
so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. - Romans 12:20
Exultation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
One of the most innate reactions of mankind when they are wronged is to hit back
in like manner. The phrase tit-for-tat has often been applied by many people in
reaction to wrongs perpetrated on them by their enemies. However, the most
effective form of revenge is to do that which your enemy does not expect you to
do. Instead of hitting back with vengeance, hit them back with the love of God.
By doing so, you will in effect be messing with their heads. The Bible compares
this sort of forgiveness to heaping coals of fire on their heads. If we can all
learn to love our enemies and to do good to those that seek to harm us, then the
world would be a better place to live in. Decide today to respond in love to all
your enemies and, before you know it, you will have turned your enemies into
your most ardent friends. Have a forgiving day! -Innocent Mwangi
