Hurt

Have you ever been hurt by people? Did you feel that gave you a right to hurt them or someone else? There was an ad I saw online a few days ago and it got me thinking. The ad was asking if you had been hurt by 'the church' and it was supposed to get you all irate and join their cause of anti- church. It just made me sad. Yes of course we've all been hurt. But think about this before you turn your back on people because they hurt you. Jesus was crucified by the church. He was called terrible names by people who didn't even know Him. And Christ was betrayed, to the death, by one of His closest friends. Do you really feel as if you have cause to be angry for being hurt? I'm saying people will hurt you, many many times. How you deal with it is what truly matters.
