Have you ever had someone be unkind to you for no apparent reason? You feel as though every interaction leaves you flustered and frustrated, maybe even a little bit angry.

How you respond in those moments shows your character. David had a chance to once and for all slay his enemy and step into God’s promise, but David knew God’s promise and his word, “Do not attack the LORD’s anointed one, for the LORD chose him.” David chose to repay Saul’s evil with kindness. Out of that encounter, even David’s enemy asked God to bless him.

When you face an enemy or someone being unkind, today, instead of repaying them with the same behaviour, be kind, bless them, encourage them, ask God to shine his face toward them.

Prayer:

LORD, thank You that with Your strength, I can show kindness even to my enemies. I pray You bless them today, In Jesus' name, Amen.
