We take matters into our own hands because we don’t trust God to avenge others like we would.

That’s when things go sideways.

It’s not your place to avenge others. It belongs to God.

He will repay.

Romans 12:19 (KJV) – dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves,  but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written,  Vengeance is mine; I will repay,  saith the Lord.
