Recovering the Ability to Forgive

Reconnect again with the capacity to forgive. Start practicing them now by exploring the following article.


“You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.” Matthew 5:43-44

Loving our neighbor is one of the fundamental pillars of Christ's teaching. God shows us the path of love through his actions and words, and it is our responsibility to follow his example in every aspect of our lives.

Like Jesus, we must be compassionate, supportive, and willing to help our fellow human beings at all times. Love for our neighbor knows no boundaries or conditions; it is a divine mandate that calls us to treat others with kindness and respect, regardless of their origin, religion, or social status.

When we love our neighbor, we reflect God's love in the world and contribute to the building of a more just and compassionate environment.


"Therefore, my friends, I want you to know that through Jesus the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you. Through him everyone who believes is set free from every sin, a justification you were not able to obtain under the law of Moses." Acts 13:38-39

Forgiving the one who offends us is an act of humility and compassion that frees us from the burden of bitterness and bitterness. Following the example of Jesus, who forgave those who crucified him, we must learn to put aside our differences and resentments to offer sincere forgiveness to those who have hurt us.

Forgiveness frees us from the past and allows us to live in peace and harmony with ourselves and with others. It is an act of love and reconciliation that brings us closer to God and helps us to grow spiritually.


“And the Lord’s servant must not be quarrelsome but must be kind to everyone, able to teach, not resentful. Opponents must be gently instructed, in the hope that God will grant them repentance leading them to a knowledge of the truth.” 2 Timothy 2:24-25

Surrendering to God is an act of trust and total surrender that allows us to experience his love and grace fully. Just as Jesus surrendered himself completely to God's plan for the salvation of humanity, we too must be willing to place our lives in his hands and follow his will at all times.

Surrendering ourselves to God implies renouncing our selfishness and seeking his glory above our own interests. It is an act of faith and obedience that allows us to experience the fullness of his love and his transforming power in our lives.

Being generous is a virtue that teaches us to share with others the resources that God has given us abundantly. As we follow the example of Christ, who gave his life for us, we must be willing to give selflessly and sacrificially to help those in need.


"And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words." Matthew 6:7

Generosity is not just about giving money or material possessions, but also about offering our time, talent and affection to those in need. It is an act of love and solidarity that allows us to reflect God's generous heart in the world and to be instruments of his grace and mercy.

The importance of prayer lies in our intimate communion with God and our dependence on his guidance and protection at all times. Prayer allows us to enter into God's presence and share with him our desires, concerns and gratitude.

It is a sacred moment in which we can experience his peace and comfort, as well as receive direction and strength to face life's challenges. By cultivating a life of constant prayer, we strengthen our relationship with God and stay connected to his will for our lives.
