Romans 12:17 “Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone.”
Teaching HIS Justice for all!
Seeking desperately, daily
and often in darkness,
she picked up her search
with ferocious intent.
Every dawn and each sun
rise — relentless pursuing,
so seen “with a vengeance”
were all of her steps.
Then “another”, observing,
whose wings remained hidden,
sat down by her bedside
before morning light.
There through visions enlightening
which granted great insight…
HE opened her eyes to see
all which she’d sought.
“Child! Justice is MINE! Yea,
which you’ve strived for greatly.
“Revenge is MINE solely with
Fairness as well”.
But know all this! Things work
together for better…with each
of MY plans and designs
drawn for you.
Therefore wake this next dawning
with greatest Intention to
teach what I’VE taught you
to those… struggling still!
As HIServant sometimes retraining myself while teaching others HIS will,

Devotional: Deuteronomy 32:35 “Vengeance is Mine; I will repay. In due time their foot will slip; for their day of disaster is near, and their doom is coming quickly.”
Wanting Justice for any outrage which harms us is a natural but fleshly response.
Revenge, “wanting someone to pay” getting even and the like…just aren’t selections that GOD wants us to choose.
Hebrews 10:30 “For we know HIM WHO who said, “Vengeance is MINE; I will repay.” And again, “The LORD will judge HIS people.”
Yes, we CAN freely will that a sinful response is most satisfying in the moment. But it’s so brief and we’re
empty once again.
So as HE tells us in no uncertain terms in the three verses listed here, HIS ways are so much higher than ours, especially in regards to “getting back” at someone.
Surrender then by learning AND actively teaching this truth to all others which IS HIS will!
Amen and amen!
