1 Sam 24: Repaying Evil with Good

When we have a chance to get back at someone who treated us badly or hurt us deeply, what will we do? Do we seize the opportunity to take an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth? Would we not be tempted to inflict even the smallest amount of damage on the person? A sip of their own medicine will not cause them to die and surely cannot be called acting 'overboard'? If such a day arises for me, I sure hope I can do what David did; choosing not to harm Saul despite given the chance by God Himself (he even feels disrespecful for secretly cuts off the corner of Saul's rope...walau man...). As a result, Saul feels utterly shameful about himself because David was more righteous than him (vs.17). The best thing to do is to do what David did...repaying evil with good. That's the bom man! That's what we call a classic act!
