On Retreat with Msgr. John Esseff Day 3 Talk 4 on “The Wounds of Unforgiveness” – Discerning Hearts

Msgr. Esseff reflects on Matthew chap 18 v 21-35. He shares the stories of a woman named Immaculee from Rwanda and young girl named Maria from Lebanon and the damage done by the hatred which is manifested in the world. We have a capacity for communion...24 hours every day, 7 days a week. How does that look in the relationship found in marriage? From childhood, there are deep wounds we carry from our parents...from siblings...or from others. What can cause those wounds? The bitterness and resentment that we carry...the damage it does to us. What is the remedy? The joy of forgiveness...and forgetting. Msgr. Esseff shares a poignant story of a man named John, and how he came to forgive what many would find "unforgivable".
