Forgive & Forget

~~~~~~~~~~~

Forgiveness, we all have been hurt, we all have felt that our hearts have been ripped from our bodies. We have felt at one time or another no will to live, we have felt anger, we have felt frustration, pain. We all have had our feelings hurt, our emotions hurt, been humiliated, struck down if you may, by someone speaking an unkind word. Now this has nothing to do with violence of the physical nature, this has to do with forgiving someone who possibly in anger or someone hurting very deeply for one reason or another has lashed out with a whip, with a wire tip or a knife or a sword, a gun, a club but not physically. All of these weapons of violence has been contained in the words or the actions that we had spoken to us, shown to us in one form or the other.

Someone does not like the length of our hair, someone does not like the clothes we wear, someone does not care for the fact that we may be a little different than them or maybe we are guilty of doing something not meant to hurt or inadvertently that this individual has taken in a completely different way than what it is meant. Many times ones word, use the same words, definition in a completely different area in which this word was used, or a person, a human may do something of a good nature and another individual see it as stabbing them in the back not physically but literally of the word, stabbing them in the back. So they come back upon us and they say ugly things, they do ugly things attempting to hurt us mentally, emotionally of the Soul and of the Spirit. We are not going to go into physical abuse or physical pain, just those areas of pain of depth, of the scars that cannot be seen on the surface. We are going to speak of the tears that flow within the depths of our soul, our inward being not necessarily of the tears that flow down our cheeks which at times flow with the greatness and the volume that these tears of the soul flow and with the same sameness. We are not speaking of blood gushing from the flesh, we are speaking of the red ink of the Spirit gushing through the insides of us because of what someone has said or the way someone has treated us. We should always remember this one thing, we go to God and very seriously with God say, God have you forgiven this individual for what they said or the action against me and if you are truly of the Spirit you may not hear God's voice but you will receive an answer.

If God can forgive this individual for striking out, if God can say this individual acted in haste and if this individual has apologized. I forgive, this is what God says. Now who are we to question God's decision, to question God's forgiveness, if God is not even going to write it down in his record book about this individual why should we write it down in the record book of our mind. Should we not say, if God forgives well then it should be good enough for me. Many times under many circumstances the individual who has spoken these ugly words, made these ugly gestures, unkind would be a good word. There are times that this individual that has done these things through no fault of what we have done to them, if they have no remorse and if they meant it in pain then we as spiritual individuals, we, the ones of us with God should back off, give this person, this individual, man, woman or child an opportunity to think, to have some time to lick their wounds, although they really do not have any to lick but give them time to find out that they have no wounds to lick. Give them time to be regretful, sorrowful for lashing out with this whip with a wire tip on the end, lashing out with this blade, not cutting your flesh but cutting your guts, back off. Do not expect an apology, do not expect an I am sorry because if you get one that you have asked for, it very possibly could not have come from their heart, from their Soul, from their Spirit, only from the tip of their tongue, give them time, back off. Now if this individual comes to you and says I am sorry, forgive me and they are truly of God and truly of the Spirit and they truly acted in haste then we should without hesitation say your apology is accepted. I am sorry you misunderstood me although you have no reason to apologize but at least meet them half way and let know that they are not just standing in front of you naked,

"Forgive and Forget".

Of course the easiest thing is this, the easiest way to forgive and to forget it, if it is totally accidental, that is the easy one you know. Somebody drops a hammer on our toe and they say, oh I am sorry and you say, oh that is all right it did not hurt, as you are wrenching in pain, as you are wrenching in pain but you say that is all right it did not hurt. That is not a very good parallel to the hurting of the mind, the heart, the thought, the emotions, the Soul, the depths of our inward being, our Spirit that gives us that drive that flows within the Earthly Temple. Forgiveness, if God forgives we should forgive. There are a lot of times we do not even have to go to God and say do you forgive this individual, it is not that important most of the time but when you forgive and you forget sometimes it is easier to forgive than to forget. It puts you on guard for the rest of your life, that programs you and if someone does something in the ball park where you were put in intense pain previously by someone else, you automatically throw up your shield, throw up your net, throw up your guard to ward these things off where in most cases this individual who you are defending yourself against is not being the aggressor.

Memories, programming always make sure as you go through life with God in the Spirit, always ready to forgive and forget, no matter what is said, no matter how it hurts, you are not going to lose an arm or a leg, you are not going to have surgery to save your life. This is not life threatening, forgive and do not just say you forgive, do not just say you forget and then two or three days, a week or a year later, bring it up. Your lips say I forgive, the lips say I forget but your mind puts it on record.

If God keeps no record why should we.

"Forgive and Forget"
