1 Thessalonians 5:15 NASB "See that no one repays another with evil for evil, but always seek what is good for one another and for all people.""Just let me get even!" Today's verse shares with us about always seeking what is good! When he came into my office, I could tell he was upset. Someone had hurt him and all he wanted was to get even. He spoke that he wanted to hurt them as they had hurt him but he realized that the attitude of getting even wasn't good. We talked awhile, we prayed awhile and slowly his revengeful thinking went away. Many times in life, we want nothing more than to get even with those who hurt us, those who take advantage of us, those who seek evil and not good. But we need to be the ones to "seek what is good for one another"! It sounds so simple but when the anger builds, the rage takes over, we want to get even. Let's let go of the need to get even, and seek the better Way! peace, tom
