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.
