My father is party...

Do not return evil for evil to anyone. Seek out what is right in front of all men. Romans 12:17

“My father party the house leaving a note. I was 13 and a half, explains this student. Then, no more news from him for almost two years. Then I saw my father occasionally. Our relationship was very superficial. I felt sadness and anger with him. On my own, I would have been unable to experience anything other than a conflictual relationship."

Having herself received God's forgiveness for her own faults, this young girl realized that she should not keep this anger : “I asked God for forgiveness for my anger and I told God that I wanted to be at peace with my father. I'm still a little disappointed that my dad didn't take any steps, but I have no more bitterness."

Injured, disappointed..., maybe you carry a burden like this student ? Anger lurking deep in your heart because of injustice, suffering ? Wouldn't this be the time to pray, to hand over these delicate situations to God, and if necessary to ask God for forgiveness for your bitterness ?

Come to me all of you who are weary of carrying a heavy burden and I will give you rest, (Matthew 11:28) affirms Jesus Christ.
