The very best thing we can do when we “feel” unjustly treated, is pray about it. First, pray that we will not take revenge into our own hands. Then for our attitudes to change. It’s only possible when we trust God with our situation. By giving it to Him, trusting Him to work it out, we guarantee ourselves grace. For it is grace that sets us free, gives us hope, and grants us peace. It the only right response when people treat us with contempt. And it’s God’s desire for us to pursue it.
22 Don’t say, “I will get even for this wrong.”Wait for the Lord to handle the matter.
