Drop that Gun
Human heart bleeds, fill with sorrow,pains, agony, shattered, broken, bittered, when hurts. It's same sense of feeling even though it was caused deliberately or accidentally.For instance when someone mistakenly hit the door against your fingers 😖. The pain is always dangerous despite its wasn't intentional action.
Today in our contemporary, this assertion is often said, hurt people hurt people(copied). The revenge can be extreme especially retaliating immediately with the grief and heaviness of the heart 👹
At this point one can easily slide to interim Devil 😈 responding to the pain with all amount of crudity and brutality.
The results sometimes may be more grievous and regrettably at the end.
Let's further a bit,
Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it and struck the High Priest's slave, cutting off his right ear. The name of the slave was Malchus.(Jhn 18:10)
Peter responded to Malchus in expression of his anger. It's the real conventional meaning of this expression "I will eat you are". Remember at this point Jesus has not been tortured, it was only attempted just to arrest Him. Now we can see how Peter responded to his immediate pain. It was more hazardous then the cause of his anger.
So it is when we revenge, either immediately or later. Revenge does not cure the pain or replace the damage, rather it leads to more damage and regret. We understood the harm, pain, lost and all the tears hurts may have caused. Every of us has been a victim of Hurt.
Yet revenge is not the answer. The best revenge is Time. Time unfolds a lot. And we access healing through time. It obvious that it was just a planned attitude to hurt you. Remember We All has been guilty of this offence (Hurt) we might have wrong someone in the past. So we ought to try and treat people how we preferred to be treated .But don'ts pick up the gun, rather pick up your pieces. It did not destroy you rather it made you stronger.
Drop the gun of retaliation, revenge,pay back, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. Endure the pain.
Drop that Gun, Don't shoot. Take a deep breath and stand strong. You will surely recovered what ever hurt made you loose.
Let the people drop the gun
Let nations drop the gun
Let the church drop the gun
Gun here is not necessarily
a weapon incorporating a metal tube from which bullets, shells, or other missiles are propelled by explosive force, typically making a characteristic loud, sharp noise(copied). Although inclusive but also involves every negative measure abstract or concrete one will want to apply to cause harm in retaliation for offence.
