Sometimes we feel aggrieved and want to take revenge but the bible teaches us to turn the other cheek and forgive. It’s difficult because our natural man wants to retaliate when we get angry. When we give our lives to the Lord, His Holy Spirit lives within us and therefore we should be swift to hear and slow to speak. Angry words can cause more damage than a beating so always try to live in peace with those around you.
