but an enemy multiplies kisses.
As iron sharpens iron,
so one person sharpens another.

it is an act of faithful love;

it is oil for my head;
let me not refuse it.
Luke 9:51-56 ESV
51 When the days drew near for him to be taken up, he set his face to go to Jerusalem. 52 And he sent messengers ahead of him, who went and entered a village of the Samaritans, to make preparations for him. 53 But the people did not receive him, because his face was set toward Jerusalem. 54 And when his disciples James and John saw it, they said, “Lord, do you want us to tell fire to come down from heaven and consume them?” 55 But he turned and rebuked them. 56 And they went on to another village.

1 Peter 5:8-9 NIV

21 Do not be conquered by evil, but conquer evil with good.
Matthew 19:3 ESV
