Jesus Doesn't Want Us To Retaliate

A Poem by Randy Johnson

When people do us wrong, Jesus doesn't want us to retaliate.

He is the Son of God so his words are something we should contemplate.

When Jesus was arrested, he didn't retaliate even though people slapped him and punched him with their fists.

When we want to retaliate against others, Jesus wants us to resist.

Jesus wants everybody to live in peace, he wants us to be meek.

When people do us wrong, Jesus wants us to turn the other cheek.
