If anyone returns evil for good, evil will not depart from his house. Proverbs 17:13 ESV
This is a universal law. Anyone who does this will have evil all the days of his life. We see it in the news, on crime documentaries, and still it happens. Somebody extended a person an act of graciousness and kindness, then the person turned against the very people that helped him or her. When people come to a point of repaying good with evil, they have invited trouble in their house and they wonder what is wrong in their home. When someone helps you at a time of need, do not abuse them. When people sacrifice to lend you money at a point of crisis, please pay them back. When people took care of you when you are sick, appreciate the kindness even if you can not pay them back. But never respond to harm someone who is only extending a helping hand. It is inviting evil inside your house, and evil will not decline the invitation. 29 July
