I have a problem with this. You said:
Nelson Mandela suffered terribly beyond belief, yet he did not turn to hate. Instead, he loved … and forgave those who treated him so wrongly. Yes, he forgave—totally. Former Australian Prime Minister Bob Hawke today described it as ‘rational forgiveness.’ I like that. It’s very much consistent with the philosophy of rational humaneness to which I adhere. Mandela was unique.
I am trying to figure out how to love a family that’s been forever dysfunctional where “I love you” is said from obligation and not from the heart. I have spent over 40 years full of hatred and bitterness that I was seeking love in the wrong ways and threw away most of my life before accepting Christ at the age of 45. Four years later and I still want to learn how to love them but finding it easier to love those who don’t have a history with me, who have only known me since giving my heart to the Lord.
I don’t find Mandela to be unique. He was human as all of us. But somehow he didn’t allow what he was taught to define him. I wish that I could speak with him to know how he did that. I forgive over and over but the hurts and pains don’t diminish.
I also know of a pastor in Honduras who was falsely accused and spent nearly 13 years in prison before a judge got to his case. He never held a grudge or retaliated. So it’s possible. I’d love to know how for my own peace of mind.
