Just move along . . .

Vengeance belongs to God . . .in Matthew 5:43-48 Jesus instructs us to love and "bless" those who wish us harm and even use us to their gain. It shows that we belong to Him! We can indeed be angry and upset, however we are not to sin in expressing our anger or even frustrations.

The righteous shall rejoice when he sees the vengeance; He shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked, So that men will say, “Surely there is a reward for the righteous; Surely He is God who judges in the earth.”(Psalm 58:10-11)

Many times people will not understand our motives or our actions. They may not even be of God. Yet we must stay focused upon doing His work and in His way and not allow others' actions to deter us. When Jesus was rejected in Samaria along with his disciples in Luke 9:51-56, Jesus told them not to "call down fire from heaven". In fact, Jesus rebuked James and John and simply moved on to another village. Just move along . . .
