Deux baffes !
[:fr]
L’offense
Je comprends vite
quand on m’explique longtemps…
Un ami s’est moqué de ce travers qui m’est propre,
devant mes enfants et mes stagiaires.
Alors qu’il riait seul à s’en tordre les boyaux,
je me sentais super humilié…
La 2ème baffe
En « bon chrétien » je me dis :
– « Bah… je m’écrase et j’oublie. »
Mais Jésus n’est pas cet avis :
– « Si quelqu’un te frappe sur la joue droite,
présente-lui aussi l’autre. » (Mat 5:39)
Ainsi, je ne dois pas « oublier« , mais retourner
et lui dire :
– « Tu m’as fait du mal ! »
S’il est normal, il se justifiera :
– » OK, mais ce n’est pas que ma faute,
mais aussi la tienne ! (ou celle de la société),
j’ai eu raison de le faire, bla bla bla… »
Et pour moi, ça sera pareil que LA 2ème BAFFE !
Paf !
Je retournais vers mon pote et…
Incroyable, il me demanda pardon sans me gifler ! (« justi-gifler » si vous préférez)
Ce genre d’ami est rare (à conserver précieusement).
Un vrai super héros
c’est quelqu’un plus fort que lui-même
Un ancien musicien de Saahsal
alla voir un de mes amis, il sonna à sa porte
et les larmes aux yeux, il lui demanda humblement pardon de l’avoir critiqué,
et cela même que cet ami n’avait pas été mis au courant,
Pourtant les gens ne demandent pardon
QUE s’ils se font prendre! (?!)
Ce dernier témoignage
m’a impressionné plus encore que
celui de ce chrétien que j’ai rencontré un soir
qui, lui, avait ressuscité plusieurs morts ! (sérieux!)
[:en] The offense A friend of mine made fun of this failing, The second swipe But Jesus does not have this opinion: Thereby, I can’t ’’forget’’, but return and tell him: Slap! A real super hero An old musician of Saahsal In general, people ask for forgiveness This last testimony Since then, I have for this friend an immense regard in my heart. (even if I have never told him) The value of a human being The size of a man is the size of his own humility.

I understand quite quickly
When I’m taught for a long time…
In front of my children and my trainees.
While he was laughing out loud,
I was feeling really humiliated…
As a ‘’good Christian’’ I told to myself:
-« Well…anyway, I shut up and forget it. »
-« If anyone slaps you on the right cheek,
turn to them the other cheek also. » (Mat 5 :39)
-« Hey, you hurt me! »
If he is ‘’regular’’, he will justify himself:
-« OK, but it’s not only my fault, but also yours! (or the society’s one),
I had the right to say it, and blabla… »
And for me, this will be similar to THE 2nd SWIPE!
I went back to my friend and…
amazing, he asked for forgiveness without slapping me!
That kind of friend is pretty rare (conserve it preciously)
Is someone stronger than himself
went to meet one of my friends, knocked at the door and,
almost crying, humbly asked for forgiveness because he had criticized him,
and this even if his friend didn’t know it.
ONLY if they are caught! ( ?!)
impressed me even more than
the one I met one evening
and he had brought back to life many dead people! (seriously!)
It is not the big biblical knowledge,
nor the titles (former, priest, chair coordinator for the left aisle, or big choucroute cook for the apostle of the last days)
nor the accomplished miracles,
nor the talent of sanctimonious to the ‘’inferior beeings’’ (which are ‘’the others’’)
which determines the spiritual level of someone,
unfortunately it is often a religious varnish behind we hide…
But his ability to repent and face his wrongs and change.
I’m making a tour in Canada…
