And boy, oh boy, does He know how to avenge!!! Curter, just remember that the Fallen One WANTS you to get angry about it. He wants you to go on a rampage and crack open some skulls on the sidewalk. Try not to give him the satisfaction, dude. It was a car that was damaged - an armour-plated fuel tank on rubber wheels and front row seats. It can be replaced. Your reputation, however, cannot. This guy probably looks to you to see how you react to these things. If you blow your top, then he'll think it is bad and therefore needs to blow his top about it as well. However, if you smile cooly, and tell him "I'm glad you are all right", he will see that a car doesn't matter. On a similar note, the pricks that are picking on him... do they know him better than he knows himself? Do they know him better than God knows him? Of course not! I don't see God hurling down abuse on your friend, so what should the opinions of a bunch of kids with room temperature I.Q's matter? They're just too narrow-minded to look past their own fears, and that will eventually be their ruin. Trust me - all they need is someone to react to their taunts and they'll know that they have you by the balls. Ignore them, or pray for them, and let the Lord catch their arrows. Earth! Out.
