When we get hurt, the first thing we need to do is pray. Let this be the first reaction to our hurt. We should pray and ask Jesus to help us in this situation. When we get hurt our first reaction is usually to fight back. But Jesus tells us that we should turn the other cheek.
It is not easier said than done but this is the best way to act. We should know that we are all imperfect and make mistakes. But marriage is not about being perfect, marriage is about learning to love each other and forgive each other despite all the imperfections.
The only one that will never let us down is Jesus and the sooner we accept this reality the easier it will be to forgive and move on. Let us have a look at the following Bible verses that will help us to overcome when we get hurt by our husbands.
