Kadin - Matthew 5



“You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’ But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also. And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well. But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, (Matthew 5:38-40, 44 NIV)

This scripture was read to us out of Kadin's Lego Bible.   Very cool. 

We are reminded to turn our other cheek when someone hurts us.  This is a beautiful lesson for our kids who have times of being teased for their faith.   More so, this inspires us to be like Christ.   To respond to others with kindness , mercy and grace just as our Heavenly Father has treated us.  

Love is very powerful.  Let's do our best to love unconditionally and with a heart that is tender towards others.
