let Love shine through you at all times

Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
We must  always respond with the love of Christ, even to those who seek to harm us.
Above all else we must allow the love of Christ to shine through us that the world may.
Know that we are the children of God.
Don't tell me this won't work in your case. I have personally heard the victorious testimony of a believer who was tortured by his communist captors yet walked in love and overcame the evil situation. It will work!
Love is stronger than hate. Good is more powerful than evil.You can walk in victory no matter what anyone does to you, for if you walk in the Lord your God victory shall be yours.  Christ told Peter he who picks up the sword shall perish by the sword.   So put your trust in God and not into kings or prince's, for they will fail you everytime. 

So we say with confidence, "The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?
Let us show the world the light of Christ and the love of God.  Yes I know what it feels like to be lied on.
Yes I know what it is like to be hurt by the one's you trusted.
Guess what so does Christ yet, he gave his life for those that hated him spit upon him and bruised him.
Yet he cried out to his Heavenly Father to forgive the same people who had beat him, cursed him, spit upon.
He did not trade evil for good why should we???
