Betrayal has the ability to cause us to want to lash-out or check-out. But Jesus wants to free us so that we can show the same response that he did to his betrayers.
The deepest experiences of betrayal always come from those you're closest to.
"Trust is choosing to make something important to you vulnerable to the actions of someone else."
