Dealing with Guilt 5 - Pray for them ...

Friday, Oct 16, 2009. How can I deal with the guilt which someone else has towards me? What to do? What to think? What to feel? So many things can happen that make someone guilty: bad words, theft, violence, ignorance, damage, suppression, mobbing, lies, fraud etc. etc.

When Jesus was nailed to the cross, he showed his heart, his love, his character. “God, forgive them, they do not know what they do.” Everyone who is collecting guilt is in a similar situation as the people who killed Jesus. It might not be murder, there are many levels of guilt. But we do not really know what we do when we follow evil ways. We do not know the damage we cause for others, and we do not know it for ourselves, which might be much larger in fact! We loose eternal life with our actions, when we go evil.

When you do something bad to your neighbor, do you not know that God is with him or her? Do you not know the solidity of the Lord with the least of his creations? Do you not know that he put his spirit into his people, that you have him living in the middle of this world with so many? You damage the Lord! You steal from God himself. You deal with the Most High, when you deal with your neighbors and with any person on this planet! If you steal, why are you so stupid? Do you not know that your actions will not remain without consequences? Do you not know that the Lord knows every thought, all what you do? Do not destroy yourself, return to him, come to faith and repair the damage you did!

People took away my mobile office yesterday - they stole my laptop bag with everything in it, passports as well as credit cards and access codes to everything. These people are so stupid, to destroy themselves for a little bit of money. Let us pray for the thieves, that they come to reason and to faith. I feel extremely sorry for these people, if they could only realize the love of God and how extremely stupid they are to act like this.

Dear Lord. Please bless these thieves! Please come into their life with your love, your truth, your trustworthiness and your power. Please help them to open their eyes. Be there with your angels, with your power and possibilities. Help them to find a straight path of life, to become a valuable part of your kingdom. Help them to return what they have taken, and to find forgiveness and peace. [R.W.E.P., jesusnetwork.eu]
