I'LL NEVER FORGIVE YOU
And pastor asked,” what
offence do you think your partner can do which you can’t forgive and what can
make the love you have for your partner grow sour?”. This month is our
family month in The Wisdomgate Church, today was the
second Sunday. Well… He threw the question to the congregation as different
people gave different perspective, some which got me thinking and some which
made me laugh. Someone even said love doesn’t exist and if it does it is just
mere words, slangs. More married people said ‘cheating’ and ‘lies’. Then
a woman stood and said “nothing”,
this really made me smile. As I raise my hand to talk, everyone looked at me as
a small child, some even laughed.
Hehehehe… I had to
clear the air as I was given the chance to say my view.
“no one is too small
or young to know what love means or at least little of what it entails. Yes...
young people know exactly what it means and not all may practice it in the
right way. For those who don’t believe in the existence of love, it’s not that
love doesn’t exist but that you waste time loving the wrong person, you waste
time loving who doesn’t know how to love and you ain’t ready also to teach and be
patient with such person. There is meant to be nothing that you won’t be able
to forgive. yes, it is hard, it is indeed but there should be nothing you shouldn’t
be able to forgive including cheating, lies, no matter the sin against you. Even
the Bible says,” love covereth multitudes of sin”, “forgive your neighbor” how
many times? I have come to believe, if you love someone truly, you won’t be
able to stay too far away from the person. Teenagers would agree with me when I
say, if you see your first love, girlfriend, you would still have this feeling
like you still care about her even if she did you really bad in the past. But for
the fact that you have forgiven and forgotten, love is still there. Love is
beautiful when after all the fight, quarrel, squabble; love still remains”
Remember, do what you want people to do unto you.
“this question was similar
to that which the Pharisees asked Jesus in Matthew 19:3.
‘Is it lawful for a
man to put away his wife for any reason?’
In other words, what
do you think your wife can do that you can’t forgive but have to send her
packing?
Jesus said to them
that The One (GOD) who made them, made them male and female from the beginning.
They said to Jesus,’
why did Moses ask them to write a bill of divorce for her and send her away?’
He said to them,’ it
is because of the hardness of the heart of man, but from the beginning it was
not so
… he said the only
reason for you to put away his wife so adultery and if you put her away, you
cannot marry another otherwise you would be committing the same sin, adultery’
According to Jesus,
the only reason you can be separated from your spouse is adultery and if you do
that, you can’t remarry. Don’t forget an adulterer or adulteress cannot inherit
the kingdom of God. So, if you don’t want to go to heaven, you can go ahead and
get separated from your partner.
The only option left
for you is to forgive again and again. The Bible also made mention of this: if
you don’t forgive neither will your father in heaven forgive you”
Our Pastor concluded.
Love can never grow sour. Your love for someone can never
cease, what happens is the feeling of love becomes dented but if you open your heart
to forgive, the dent will pop out, the love will return.
I wrote,” the
happiest feelings in life; love given, love felt and love returned”. And a
great man said,” I destroy my enemies by
making them my friends”
I love you all……
remain loved.
Have a very blissful day.
with much love.
