When you are mistreated, misunderstood, or taken advantage of, your natural desire will be to seek revenge. Choose instead to allow JESUS to discipline those who have hurt you. While doing so, HE will also seek to reach their hearts. In the long run, the best way to relate to your enemies is to love them. They will either humble their hearts and become your friend or try to avoid you out of their own shame. When JESUS was mistreated and nailed to the cross, HE prayed, " Father, forgive them, for they don't know what they are doing." After HE was resurrected, many confessed their sins, repented, and became HE's disciples.
