The Heart of a Rescuer
from Devotions with Pastor Stanton · host Stanton Petersen
Let’s be honest for a moment. Have you ever seen someone who took advantage of you, who chose their own selfish path at your expense, suddenly face the consequences of their actions? There’s a secret, dark part of us that whispers, “Well, they had it coming.” It feels like justice. We feel vindicated. Our natural instinct is to stand back, watch the mess unfold, and think, “Maybe now they’ll learn their lesson.” But what if God calls His people to a radically different response? What if our seasons of peace and blessing are not meant for our own comfort, but to prepare us to be rescuers for the very people who have wronged us?
