Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing. 1 Peter 3:9, NIV Choose to love those people who caused you pain. Do not repay evil with evil. Do good things and do not focus on the negative things that happened. Speak blessings and release love.

Day 360 – 1 Peter 3:3-4

So do not exert too much effort on improving the outside appearance if you still didn’t work out the important matters in your heart. Pray that God will transform you, and He will let you see the things you need to learn. Remember that He sees what’s going on inside, and He wants…
