What do you do when someone "sins" against you? No one goes through life without being hurt by someone. Most of the time, the person causing the pain doesn't even realize it. Sometimes, the person truly intends the pain. But, what do we do about it?
Good day my lovely and handsome read dot cash family. Blessed Sunday to all of you. Its been a while since the last time I wrote a blog for Sunday. I think its been a month then. Like I said before, I want to take a rest on Sunday. But then again, I came to realized that I can still spend a little time to type on my keyboard to come up with a blog, whether its short or a long one. I came to realized that I will be wasting my chance if I didn't make one today, again. So here I am, hoping that you can bare some of your time with me too and read this short write up for this wonderful Sunday.
How do you deal when someone hurt you? How will you react when someone doesn't seem to know that they hurt you? Are you one of those who confront that someone? Or just waiting for him or her to realize it by his or her own?
I've got to read a passage stating, "Jesus tells His disciples to first go to the person and keep it between the two of them. In this way, the person who has offended the other can explain his or her intent, apologize for any pain caused, and the relationship can be maintained." Can you do this too? I mean, when you realize that you have hurt or offended others, do you have the guts to go directly to him or her and apologize for what you have done?
Continuing the passage, "But what happens when the first thing someone does is go and tell all his or her family members and friends abou it? There can be resentment against the guilty party that could be unfounded."
There is a woman who complained about the treatment she received from her spouse or children, her boss or coworkers, and never confronted the person directly. Its not an abuse or any abusive situation, but normal slights and offenses that can occur with anyone with whom you spend a lot of time. You then meet the "offending" person in a gathering and everything is "fine." You may still feel a bit of anger at the one who caused your friend or a family member such anguish. But the person explains that she finally sat down with the offending person and had a heart to heart talk and everything got ironed out.
If she just first spoke to the offender, it would have been settled a lot sooner and no one else would have been dragged into the argument. Did you get my point?
And the passage continues, "Jesus also laid out some ground rules if the situation could not be so easily solved. Bring along a couple of witnesses to the confrontation and then if nothing can be resolved bring it to a higher authority."
Honestly speaking, I am not really good at confronting someone who have caused me pain. But I am not also belong to those who share an argument with others. Like, I am trying to fight the battle all by myself. I don't want others to get into trouble because of me. I also don't want others to get involve in a situation that I should face alone. Whenever possible, I will try my best to handle the situation first and when the time comes that I can't solve it by my own, that's the time that I will ask some advice to a friend or a family member.
After reading the passage, I came to realized that I should learn to bring my grievances to the person responsible and not spread gossip or slander without giving the person the opportunity to apologize when he or she realized what he or she have done to me. In that way, I am giving myself a good opportunity to think about my own actions and how I can better resolve conflicts in the future. Of course, in God's loving grace and guidance, I can possibly make it.
Thank you for reading everyone! (Hugs and Kisses)
