#576 - We're Only Safe at the Foot of the Cross | Hope for Hurting Wives
Sunday Apr 07, 2024
Sunday Apr 07, 2024
When someone deeply hurts us, Satan tempts us in a very subtle way. He tempts us to obsess about their sins and to see ourselves as being better than they are. And if we don't guard our hearts, we can easily begin to judge them as being terrible sinners who are unworthy of mercy. It's a very dangerous place to be, and the only way to overcome this temptation is to stay at the foot of the cross.
