Vengeance Is Mine

About the Book

The word of God tells us in Romans 12:19, (KJV) “Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath, for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, says the Lord” (YouVersion) And in Deuteronomy 32:35 (KJV) To me, belongeth vengeance, and recompense; their foot shall slide in due time: for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things, that shall come upon them make haste.” (YouVersion) These scriptures clearly show us that we are not to avenge anyone, that vengeance of any kind belongs to God, and He will recompense or repay us for the evil done, we are not to take the law into our own hands. But what goes through your mind when someone is hurting you? You want to hurt them back, as hard as you could. I knew that, and it was taught to me growing up, still, that did not stop me from wanting to hurt the man that hurt me, I wanted to take revenge on that person who had so cruelly mistreated me and my daughter, and the only thing I wanted was for him to hurt as bad as he had hurt us and gloat about it. It left painful scars on me both physically and mentally it took years and much therapy not to feel the hurt and pain suffered for me to learn to forgive that person. When I came to Tulsa, I was distraught, hurt, and unsure of what I was doing nor even how I was supposed to do what it is that I was brought here to do. Getting one foot in front of the other from moment to moment and day to day was a monumental task for me. For a long time, I was not sure how to go about to starting again. Picking myself up again and moving on.
