Episode 301 - When Someone Has Hurt You

King Saul hunted David through the wilderness, determined to kill him. Then one night, David stood beside the sleeping king with an opportunity to retaliate. His companion urged him to strike Saul, but David refused. Instead, he spared the life of the man who had caused him so much pain.Romans 12:21 says, “Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.” When someone hurts us, revenge allows their wrong to produce more wrong through us. David chose to leave justice in God’s hands rather than taking it into his own.You cannot control how others treat you, but you can choose how you respond. Do not let another person’s bitterness become yours. Trust God with the injury, and overcome evil by choosing what is right.
