Is our heart really broken?
Maybe we have old wounds.
An abusive parent; a teacher who despises us; the brother who rejected us; maybe a friend who betrayed us; and we are very angry.
It is possible that our wounds are recent.
The friend who owes us money, we always see him shopping, eating in expensive restaurants.
The boss who contracts us with promises of promotion, and does not even know who we are.
All these things and many more hurt us in the depths of our hearts.
A part of us is broken, because the way we see things, what happens to us is unfair and we do not stop to think for a second that God is testing our hearts; Another part of us is bitter and without consolation, we do not know whether to cry or fight?
And the fire comes in the heart, the fire of wrath.
This is where we must make an easy decision; We put out that fire of anger that does not lead us to anything good or we revive it and sink further? Do we face the situation with meekness or do we seek revenge? I clean my heart taking out all pain or nourishment the resentment that has caused us so many wounds? I heal my wounds or do I turn them into hatred?
Both infidelity and revenge are bad. But the worst of all is that without forgiveness, all that remains is bitterness.
9 The way of the wicked is an abomination to Jehovah;
But he loves the one who follows justice.
