"You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’ But now I tell you: do not take revenge on someone who wrongs you. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, let him slap your left cheek too."
Matthew 5:38-39 GNBDK
Reflection:
The Christian worldview is almost contrarian to what we perceive as normal or regular world view. And this is beacuse the foundation laid by Christ is that of Love and that of the world is profit and gain. While love is patient, kind and not self seeking. The world teaches us and eye for and eye, tooth for tooth even if it means suffering and pain. The question is which side are you on?
Prayer:
I pray that God our Father gives you the grace and wisdom to choose the way and life established by Jesus Christ his son who is the truth and incarnate of our living God. May his Holy Spirit bless you with knowledge and understanding of God's ways. Amen
God Bless you and your loved ones :)
