Almost on a daily basis I return to this verse. 
I think it is crucial for us. How we respond to hostilities is increasingly important. Wise as serpents and harmless as doves. source.

A Flower Box Lesson
For you to see my point in this pic,
let me explain.
Our sunflowers are spindly. More than I think they should be. Anyway a week or more ago I noticed one had fallen over; it had a pretty severe bend in its stalk but I decided to leave it rather than pull it up. Good move! :)
Notice its fall was cushioned by a friend. And notice too if you will, resting there with its friend, it began reaching for the sun. It’s green again, putting on leaves and I believe it just may bloom!
I see two parallels, perhaps you see others.
One. When we fall down, look to the Son right where we are and begin to grow again.
Two. Be a friend. Comfort the fallen. Lend them strength. Encourage them in JESUS. Help them look up and begin to grow again. And won’t you be so blessed when they bloom?!
Ecclesiastes 4:10 (NIV) 10 If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up. source

Song of Solomon 2:12 (NLT)
12 The flowers are springing up,
the season of singing birds has come
and the cooing of turtledoves fills the air. source
