Los seres humanos estamos cargados de emociones, algunas buenas y otras no tan buenas que influyen en nuestra salud y en nuestra vida diaria.
Human beings are loaded with emotions, some good and some not so good, which influence our health and our daily life.
As you may notice, our being is composed of body, soul, and spirit, the soul being the place where our emotions, feelings, and thoughts accumulate, which in the end generate the "will". Will can be defined as the "human capacity to decide freely what one wants and what one does not want" and the "disposition of a person towards others".
That said, it could be said that it is in the soul that we accumulate all emotions, be they good or bad. Among these we can cite the following: love, hatred, resentment, guilt, happiness, pride, remorse, among others..
According to the Royal Spanish Academy, resentment is defined as "deep-rooted and tenacious resentment", this deep feeling is provoked by some offense or harm from one person to another.
Generally, the person who holds a grudge believes that by doing so he is hurting the person who offended him or caused him harm, but he does not realize that the harm is being done to himself, since holding a grudge produces a series of illnesses in our body (blood pressure, digestive problems, stiffness in the joints, liver problems, emotional stress, cancer) and a permanent state of unhappiness, ruining his life and stopping him from enjoying pleasant moments with his loved ones.
Maybe you offended someone special to you and you can't forgive yourself or maybe you hold a grudge against someone and you are not aware of it, in either case, it is important that you sit down and think about whether it is worth losing a friendship because you don't know how to forgive.
Lo primero que debes hacer es reconocer que en tu corazón existe un resentimiento hacia alguién o hacia ti mismo por algo que hiciste o que dejaste de hacer. Ese resentimiento te está afectando a tal punto que te roba la paz espiritual, te crea ansiedad y te enferma, es por eso que ya no estas dispuesto a dejar que esa raíz de amargura continúe creciendo en tu alma y afecte tu vida.
The first thing you must do is to recognize that in your heart there is resentment towards someone or yourself for something you did or did not do. That resentment is affecting you to such an extent that it is robbing you of spiritual peace, creating anxiety, and making you sick, that is why you are no longer willing to let that root of bitterness continue to grow in your soul and affect your life.
Recordemos lo que dice la Biblia en Efesios 4:31-32.
Quítense de vosotros toda amargura, enojo, ira, gritería y maledicencia, y toda malicia.
Antes sed benignos unos con otros, misericordiosos, perdonándoos unos a otros, como Dios también os perdonó a vosotros en Cristo.
Once you recognize that the problem exists and that you are willing to address a possible solution, you must realize that no one is infallible and that is why we make mistakes, and at some point, we can offend with our words and attitudes. "It happens to me and it happens to others.
Remember what the Bible says in Ephesians 4:31-32. Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamor, and evil speaking, and all malice, be put away from you. But be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as in Christ God forgave you.
As a second step, take inspiration from Mark 11:25 "And when you are praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone, so that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses". We must find the best way to talk to the person, who offended us or who we offended and ask for "forgiveness", if they do not accept your apology, do not feel bad, you have done your part, pray that God will help them as He has helped you.
Last but not least, we must keep in mind that to err is human, and therefore we must practice tolerance, empathy, patience, respect, and above all love for others. This will avoid many inconveniences.
If you offend, ask for forgiveness as soon as possible and do not let time pass. As Ephesians 4:26 says "Be angry but do not sin; be reconciled before the sun goes down".

Versículos a tomar en cuenta
Hebreos 12:15 | Colosenses 3:13-15 |
---|---|
Mirad bien, no sea que alguno deje de alcanzar la gracia de Dios; que brotando alguna raíz de amargura, os estorbe, y por ella muchos sean contaminados; | Soportándoos unos a otros, y perdonándoos unos a otros si alguno tuviere queja contra otro. De la manera que Cristo os perdonó, así también hacedlo vosotros. Y sobre todas estas cosas vestíos de amor, que es el vínculo perfecto. Y la paz de Dios gobierne en vuestros corazones, a la que asimismo fuisteis llamados en un solo cuerpo; y sed agradecidos. |
Verses to consider
Hebrews 12:15 | Colossians 3:13-15 |
---|---|
Take heed lest any man fails of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up hinder you, and by it, many are defiled; | Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man has a complaint against another. As Christ forgave you, so also do ye. And above all these things put on love, which is the perfect bond. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful. |
