To one who strikes you on the cheek, offer the other also, and from one who takes away your cloak do not withhold your tunic either. Luke 6:29
It's so much easier to become defensive when faced with conflict, than it is to turn the other cheek. Consider that Jesus isn't suggesting that we become doormats, but rather that we go into situations with humility and willingness to allow love to resolve the situation rather than pride.
