This passage really struck me especially after the atrocities of the Paris attacks as it mentions not to get into revenge attacks and that we need to be kind and generous with everyone, not only Christians, but absolutely everyone. We also need to hold on to the good and not be swayed by the evil all around us. The Holy Spirit within us is like a pilot light, which must never be extinguished and will rub off on all the people around us. We need to never lose contact with God, but always stay strong in Him no matter how hard life around us is. There will always be a light at the end of a very long and dark tunnel. In the end we will be grateful for the life God has put before us and the people we meet along the way. God will remove all the pollution from our life to make us pure again. Let’s strive to spread His great Word to everyone. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.
