That look

And again in the passage above he says, “They shall never enter my rest.”

-Hebrews 4:5, NIV

Some of the most miserable people are cheaters who are caught between their sinful passions and what they know is right.

They lash out at the faithful spouse hoping to offload this onerous battle. But you cannot outrun yourself.

Unless they completely kill their conscience, the cheater will never enter into rest.

This is one of the many reasons that I do not envy cheaters. They have compromised their own integrity and brought hell into their own lives by giving into sin.

That look…

…is the look of someone trying to look happy but is under incredible internal strain over violating core principles of healthy human relationships.
