You are not alone in this matter. When betrayed, we often respond in anger, which may lead to exacting revenge for our hurt. We want the betrayer to suffer intensely for how they have wronged us.
Jesus encountered betrayal by one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot. I’m sure He struggled with it, but He didn’t throw a fit over it. In fact, on the night of His betrayal, Jesus didn’t even try to stop it. He told Judas to do what was in his mind to do. Jesus was no pushover, yet He acted graciously and kindly.
When hurt by betrayal, I suggest you look to Jesus who loves you, pursues you. and intimately understands the hurt and reality of betrayal.
