Forgive All Injuries
Notice that the sixth act of spiritual mercy says to "forgive all injuries." Thus, we are called upon to forgive all those who wrong us, no matter
how large or small the injury. Not only is this good spiritual advice, but it is also good from the mere perspective of human relations. At times,
this can be incredibly difficult, especially if we have been wronged gravely or repeatedly by someone who seems intent on harming us. However,
by forgiving those who have harmed us, we "bury the hatchet" and thus end the conflict and any asso
ciated animosity. Otherwise, we are sure to keep the conflict running and thus increase the possibility of
being injured in the future. Great acts of forgiveness are some of the most morally beautiful actions, and
often lead to reconciliations which were not thought to be humanly possible. Consider that in places like
Rwanda, where acts of genocide were carried out, victims who had their entire families murdered have
somehow found it within themselves, and with the help of God, to forgive their enemies. We too should
reflect on whether we are carrying around any old grudges and thus have not forgiven all injuries. And
then, with God's help, truly forgive them.
Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassion, kindness, low
liness, meekness, and patience, forbearing one another and, if one has a com
plaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you
also must forgive. R.S.V. Colossians 3:12-13
