Thinking about Getting Even?

The only people you should try to get even with are those who have helped you! Jesus said, “love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you” -- Matthew 5:44

The only people you should try to get even with are those who have helped you! See that no one repays another with evil for evil, but always seek after that which is good for one another and for all people. -- 1 Thessalonians 5:15

Try to Get Even with Your Parents! “But if any widow has children or grandchildren, let them first learn to show piety at home and to repay their parents; for this is good and acceptable before God.” -- 1 Timothy 5:4

Try to get even with those who have taught you the gospel! “Let him who is taught the word share in all good things with him who teaches.” - Galatians 6:6

Try to get even with those who have taught you the gospel! “For if the Gentiles have been partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister to them in material things” - Romans 15:27

Try to get even with those from whom you have stolen by giving it back! Then Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, “Look, Lord, I give half of my goods to the poor; and if I have taken anything from anyone by false accusation, I restore fourfold.” -- Luke 19:8

You can get even with those who have been kind to you by being kind to others Pay it forward! “Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in the power of your hand to do so.” -- Proverbs 3:27

Remember that we can never get even with God for all that He has done for us Were the whole realm of nature mine, That were a present far too small; Love so amazing, so divine, Demands my soul, my life, my all.
