       No, on the contrary, God does care. He will take care of any vengeance that is necessary toward anyone with whom it is necessary. We have to turn any resentment over to God, and that can in certain instances be a very difficult thing for us to do. Especially if we are a person with a sense of justice, a person who desires to see justice always done, it can be particularly hard to let a person go. However, as I said, God will enact the due punishment that we want for the person in his timing. What we can do for people who have hurt us is to simply to be nice to them. I believe it is easier for us to be nicer to unbelievers at the times they hurt us because we can easily say, “Oh, they didn’t know any better. They’re not saved and don’t know the truth.” So, it can make it easier for us to excuse their bad behavior and treat them kindly. Now, with Christians who do something harmful to us, it can be a whole different story.
