Proverbs 24: 17Don’t rejoice when your enemies fall; don’t be happy when they stumble. 18For the lord will be displeased with you and will turn his anger away from them.

I have to say that in the past I was very guilty of being happy when someone I disliked had problems or troubles... I was a terrible person before Jesus.. that is for sure... 
I can say now that I can have compassion on someone even if they are mean or hateful towards me... I can feel sorry for someone that I do not like all that much... 
I am very thankful for all the changes that God has made in me as a person... I am still not good all the time.. that is for sure.. just yesterday I was thinking how ridiculous a particular person was... but then God has to set me aside and let me know that whether I am right in what I see on that person.. or whether I am wrong... all of it is none of my business... so while I am not all that I wish I were.. I am certainly so much better than the hard hearted ruthless person I was in the past and all of it is due to the goodness of God!
