When someone wrongs you, checking your heart matters more than your actions. A hard heart leads to wrong decisions no matter what you do outwardly. The proverb says it plainly: from the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
God, this person treated me so bad. What should I do? Should I get revenge on them? Don't— let me answer that. Let me answer for you. Check your heart, because if you have a hard heart, every decision that you make is going to be wrong. It is your heart that determines your action. The Bible says from the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. So if you hate somebody in your heart, it doesn't matter if you give them money. What's your heart posture like?
