To Think About: In Proverbs, God’s guide to living, we are reminded how to treat those who have not treated us well because this what God expects. If your enemies are hungry, feed them; if they are thirsty, give them a drink. You will make them burn with shame, and the Lord will reward you. Proverbs 25:21-22 GNT

思考:上帝在箴言中賜智慧指導我們的生活,讓我們照著神喜悅的方式回應那些不友善的人。箴言25:21-22:你的仇敵若餓了,就給他飯吃;若渴了,就給他水喝。因為你這樣行,就是把炭火堆在他的頭上,耶和華也必賞賜你。
