When someone you love breaks your heart and betrays your trust, you're in a vulnerable place. And the enemy will try to use this to get you to do 4 things that will hurt you even more, derail you spiritually and rob you of God's blessing.
- Isolate yourself, wrap yourself in grief and avoid others, out of embarrassment at failure, or not wanting them to see your pain.
- Lose your sense of trust, and suspect the motives of everyone around you, and those you meet.
- Cause a root of bitterness to spring up in you, that will effect every relationship you have.
- Make you strike back, seeking revenge and get even, rendering evil for evil.
Don't do it! Instead stand on God's word and remember the verse at the top and His other promises:
So has someone done you wrong? Forgive them - Let it Go! Every time it or they come up in your mind, remind yourself you have forgiven them! Keep on forgiving them, at the same time if it is not a spouse, and they are continuing to hurt you, remove them from your life, cut them off, make it clear you want nothing more to do with them. Forgive them but don't let them continue to hurt you. Worse case scenario, pray about it and change jobs, trespass them, move house or do what you must to avoid them. If it is a spouse....I highly recommend you watch the movie, 'Fireproof', then get 'The Love Dare' and try it, and don't stop praying!
