A friend was falsely accused. As a result, he lost his job and suffered some serious health issues. Through it all his heart remained pure. Not once did he speak disparagingly of those who had engineered his demise. Over coffee one morning, I asked him how he managed to keep such a positive outlook. Without a moment’s hesitation he replied, “I’ve never been a bitter or vindictive person and I’m not going to allow anyone to make me into something I’m not.”
“For it is God’s will that by doing good you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish men.”
— 1 Peter 2:15
Lord Jesus, help us to overcome evil with good and always manifest a Christ-like spirit. In Your holy name we pray. Amen.
