Getting Even??

1 Thessalonians 5:15
Make sure that nobody pays back wrong for wrong, but always try to be kind to each other and to everyone else.

1 Thessalonians 5:22
Avoid every kind of evil.

Ephesians 4:29-32
Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.

This is the one that summons it all up the best. I know it is so hard to hold your tongue when you feel someone has wronged you. We are going through a situation right now concerning our in laws and ex's. Its really hard when they push your buttons and use your children to get to you. It is sad when this happens.

Be careful in how you handle yourself. Watch your words, hit your knees and give the situation to God.

Romans 12: 17-21
Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written, " It is mine to avenge: I will repay, says the Lord. On the contrary:
"If your enemy is hungry, feed him,
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink,
In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head."
Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
