Do we follow Jesus?

[arunangelo]

Luke 6: 27-30 NIV "But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic. Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back

And try to have the same humble character.
It is really hard to love our enemies but we have to try to do this with God helpin us

Forgiveness is not about the offender getting off the hook for the consequences of his/her actions, its about you taking your hands off their throat so to speak and relieving yourself of the burden of hatred.
