Three things that I've learned from the recent battle that I've faced in my life. First: There are only three people you should care about to explain yourself in the midst of false accusations.
These are:
1. Your family and friends
2. The authority
3. Those people who really believes in you.
Never explain yourself to those people who don't like you, to those people who hate you and to those people who are insecure to you. Because "all lies and jest, still a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest".
Even though you are right, if your bashers hate you, they will always come up with another reason to put a blame on you... So why bother explaining the truth to them if they will just disregard it because its you.
So just explain yourself to those who really care, and that's your family and friends.
Explain yourself to the right people who have the authority to judge the situation because they have the right to know the truth.
Explain yourself to those people who believe in you because they deserve to hear your side and because they will listen and they will believe.
Second: Never revenge nor ask something bad to happen to those who hate you.
Never give in to their cruel world. Train your heart to forgive. Train your heart to be patient. Train your heart to understand in the midst of chaos.
Smile. Let them know how graceful you are in handling delicate things.
Be not quick to judge. Try to understand why they are cruel or rude or bad. And if you can not comprehend why, then try your best to stay as far as you can. Do not sin because of others.
Third: Defend yourself without using harsh words.
"If the words you spoke appear on your skin, would you still be beautiful?"
Like Jesus who died on the cross blameless. He could have cursed those people who are mocking Him. He could have raised His voice to those who are accusing Him with false accusations. But He didn't. Because He knows the truth and truth will always redeem a righteous man.
And it is always glorious to defend yourself without using harsh words.
