A resentment is like a tar baby...the more we wrestle with
it, trying to get rid of it, the more we wrap ourselves up in it, showing it
forth.
We can see the golden shore of forgiveness, we know what
peace that offers, we long for that feeling, yet our thoughts return to the tar
baby. How we can clean IT up, make IT pay, make IT see ITS wrong in tarpapering
us.
The lesson we must learn is that our reasoning mind cannot
on its own power change a resentment into forgiveness. We must surrender to the
fact (or accept the fact), first, that our reasoning mind is not the powerhouse
we want it to be, and, second, that there is a powerhouse within us waiting to
do for us what we cannot do for ourselves.
Let go and let God.
Thank You.
