"Do not envy the oppressor, and choose none of his ways.""When someone does you harm, it seems only natural that you should do the same to him, right? Wrong! You can never get even with someone who has harmed you. Any attempt to do so puts you behind the eight ball, again. Two wrongs never make a right. Nor can you right a wrong by committing another wrong. You may be able to justify your actions politically or socially, but spiritually you will be held accountable for what you do-why you do it doesn't count. The pendulum of life swings both ways and brings rewards at both ends of the spectrum..."
~ Proverbs 4:31
