Betrayal by Family & Friends
12 For it is not an enemy who reproaches me, Then I could bear it; Nor is it one who hates me who has exalted himself against me. Then I could hide myself from him. 13 But it is you, a man my equal, My companion and my familiar friend; 14 We who had sweet fellowship together Walked in the house of God in the throng. Psalms 55: 12 - 14 (NAS)
The above scripture is shocking but true.
Family and friends don’t betray each other, or do they?
Yes, they do!
Seems like the ones you love the most are the same ones that constantly hurt you. If you are like me you want to help everybody. You want to save the world. These are good characteristics to have. But sometimes people take advantage of your kindness.
So what do you do?
1. Act like it never happened?
or
2. Deal with it,forgive and keep it moving
The latter is the correct answer. If you go with #1 and act like it didn’t happen, it will resurface. It may hurt a great deal in the beginning but time and most importantly God’s grace & mercy will get you through the hard times.
Pray for those that hurt you.
A wise woman once told me - “Baby - hurt people, hurt other people”
