Take these verses, and others as well, and know that God will never abandon you, no matter how fierce the battle, no matter who comes against you, no matter your level of maturity in Christ. And if at any time you've had enough, and feel compelled to retaliate, remember to leave that in God's hands, "If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward them that hate me." (Deuteronomy 32:41)
