FORGIVENESS
Forgiveness is one of
the deepest and most intense spiritual manifestations and
from the spiritual perspective it has to be completely honest, integral
and absolute.
It requires of great effort and then the experiences of conciliation, balance and harmony happen.
Why is so difficult
to forgive ?
Because wounds ,
bruises , traumas have formed and often with innumerable crisis, which
may be hidden or waiting to be resolved but definitively with a big
load of frustration, bitterness and resentment.
Therefore, the
person who has not forgiven or the one who feels that he cannot forgive is severely afflicted, poisoned and full of sadness, loneliness and
even of desire
of revenge.
This is really mortal since the person who does not forgive, makes the conflict to grow, to magnify and in turn he is tortured.
Forgiveness is
directly related to many circumstances which are very painful: The
pain, the rage, the frustration have to be overcome, otherwise life
will become a perpetual conflict. And we do not want to experience this. We do not want to be filled with more bitterness and hatred, we have
to be free of all this.
For forgiveness to really happen, we must look not only for psychological help but also the center of the forgiveness has to come from God Himself. If God does not allow us to forgive, we may say it or promise it or look for it but it will not last.
Forgiveness is
liberating, renovating, regenerating and in addition it changes
us from the victim's position, to self confidence, appreciation and
spirit
of good.
How can we
reconcile the issue that when we forgive, we forgive what we repudiate
?
Forgiveness is not
the apology of evil nor the justification of mistreatment and
offense. It is the evocation, the clamor of the victim to God saying :
Oh Lord take from me any poison that is in my heart since this is like
the smoke that hurts and blinds my vision.
Life must not coexist with infinite hate,
on the contrary, it must return to Peace. And when there has been
affliction, physical and moral harm, then forgiveness is a miracle,
which means the direct intervention of the Presence of God.
Then, nothing can confuse, upset nor
confuse us because there is a revelation of life, there is understanding
and we forgive because we have been forgiven.
It is not possible
otherwise, only the one who receives forgiveness, then, receives the
power of the inner peace and in this Peace, in this wonderful
conciliation, God opens the heart and makes possible that we look
not only beyond but beyond ourselves.
And in this way, Forgiveness arises and shares the presence, the teaching, the revelation of life, where the glory of glories is born. Because Forgiveness, specially is, the way of the grace and the grace of Peace. |
