This is not a good attitude. We should forgive people (Romans 12:17-21). We should even love our enemies (Matthew 5:44). But God will punish evil people, if they do not ask God to forgive them. (See Deuteronomy 32:35.) Seeking revenge doesn't undo the wrong that was done; it only adds more harm. God doesn't excuse evil behavior just because you've been wronged. If you leave justice to God, He will ultimately bring something good out of the situation for you.Verse 23This is similar to verse 10. Many people think that small lies do not matter. Solomon does not agree with this idea. Solomon repeats the lesson, because it is important. God hates all lies.Verse 24We try to understand our own lives. We try to understand our experiences. Often we do not know why things happen. But God knows. He directs our lives. And he guides us. He is like a farmer who looks after his sheep (Psalm 23; John 10:1-11).   We might try to follow our own plans, but ultimately, we have to accept that God is in control.Consider this: If we trust God to handle revenge, we won't end up hurting innocent people in the process. In the heat of seeking vengeance, it's often the innocent who get caught in the crossfire.If you want daily truth in a raw, simple format… come follow us on TikTok at Wisdom for the Day — RAW.Real truth.
