What then was Jesus getting at when He instructed us to turn the other cheek? He was advising against letting our life be controlled by the need to exact revenge. Instead, the values of generosity and forgiveness ought to guide us. We are able to carry out Jesus' instructions exactly because of the power of the Holy Spirit that resides within us.
To forgive as you have been forgiven is the best way to exact revenge. Let me show the other cheek as You did so frequently, and let me experience the bliss of love when I say, "I forgive."
