Eye for Eye Matthews 5:38-42

God's an encouraging God ....
This chapter of Matthew really encourages to do more than you can for others.. sure this is talking mainly about what you do when someone persecutes you/ harms you/ forces you to do things, THEN your rxn is to do more than they expect, but overall it somehow teaches me and encourages me that when you do something for someone. GO BEYOND. the bare minimum is to finish that task fully (ie, like.. cook for them, and to " finish the task" is to put it on a plate and serve it to them"... remind you, seriously thats obviously bare minimum, cause you dont just cook and say "ya, go get it yourself" to me, its only normal,
but these verses somehow reminds me to go beyond, so ... ex. you can say, collecting and washing the dishes for them) obviously this is an easy pessy example that can be done like everyday, but you get what i mean :T ...

Serving others is an art. the art to serve others comes with practice too! ... its more than just doing, because when you're heart is in it for God, knowing that serving others is serving God, you would go beyond and not boast, not complain, but do it willingly...
:) so let us do more than expected, God did immensely more..by sacrificing it ALL. his Life, and we were the least the deserve this, we are like a speck of dirt, and love because God loved us first..:)

³⁸ “You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’^{b]" style="font-size: 0.75em; line-height: 0.5em; ">[b]} ³⁹ 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. ⁴⁰ And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well. ⁴¹ If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles. ⁴²Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.
