“The wicked
in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them
be taken in the devices that they have imagined.” Psalm 10:2
It
is natural to anguish over the pain that others cause. However it is the flesh that wants to return
the pain to that person, by our own efforts.
Our efforts double the trouble for us and we are twice worse off.
Jesus
taught us to "Turn the other cheek". He
also showed us by His example to go to the Father when we are in need. When someone is after you and causing you
trouble, turn your cheek, get on your knees and tell your Abba Father (Daddy)!
There
is one that torments me;
I
can’t get him off my mind.
I
can’t escape the thought of him,
This
one that is so unkind.
With
hot pursuit he charges forth.
I
seem too weak to flee.
I’m
crushed inside I need Your help,
LORD! Please hear my plea!
Let
all the schemes he designed for me,
That
causes me such harm.
Be
returned to him with double force,
And
for me his attacks disarm!
“And because ye are sons, God
hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.” Galatians 4:6
