Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone. – Romans 12:17
Our response to the challenges and conflicts we face is wholly within our control. Jesus calls us to respond with love, even when we are wronged. This means not repaying evil for evil, but instead, doing what is right in the eyes of everyone. Today, let’s focus on our responses. When faced with conflict or opposition, choose to respond with love and grace. This is not always easy, but it is the way of Christ. By doing so, we can be a light in a divided world and show others the love of Jesus.
