| Revenge in Bible Verses |
So awhile ago, my bestie and I talked over the phone. I only consider words coming out of her mouth because she has a pure heart. She was sincerely concerned to me and I really take her thoughts into consideration. She told me that I shouldn't waste my time to revenge because it's God's thing. I truly believe her, I do. However, I also pondered about myself. Have I always been revengeful or am I always just seeking justice or I just love telling the truth? Themes in my life has always been revolving around karma, trauma, and shadow work. I've only confirmed this when I started to study metaphysics. And looking back at the past, I've always been a good girl. I've always followed the rules, respected authorities, respected my seniors, teachers, always followed their teachings, and everything like that. That's why people are shocked when this chaotic side of me reveals. It's only revealed when people keep on pushing me to do things after I've clearly told them my boundaries. Some people just won't take no for an answer. For the most part, I just ignore it until it fades away. However, Saturn has this amazing way of bringing people back in my life until they have learned their karma. So, me, as a person ruled by Saturn, that's my recurring theme. People just won't stop appearing in my face until they have done their shadow work, however, some people don't learn until they're hurt. It hurts me to hurt them, too. Nobody deserves that. But the thing is, nobody defends me. Only me (and God). Nobody dares to get their hands dirty just to defend me. Only me. But personally also, when my loved ones are degraded and stepped on, I'm always the one stepping up and doing the dirty work to protect them. So, in my case, there's this recent thing that clicked on my brain. That maybe I should put definition on what revenge is and what isn't. Because I could totally wait for the time God will avenge me. However, I also highly believe in "speak no evil, see no evil, hear no evil." and sometimes, they only way they won't speak evil is when I say the truth. Because they will keep on pushing my buttons just to get what they want, while my peace is being disrupted.
I highly resonate that what I did was far from revenge because I only spoke nothing but the truth. Hence, “If the truth shall kill them, let them die” - Immanuel Kant
