Forgiveness & nutella

Mahatma Gandhi was a very wise and noble man, one of his quotes that has plenty truth and wisdom is "The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong"

That shows how weak i am. Some of you there wondering what the heck has forgiveness gotta do with nutella? Well you see, to be strong you need food, whether its spiritual or physical food, whatever food is still needed, so when u need to eat, i recommend nutella! nutella is one of the BEST things ever created! i haven't had much apetite to eat for the past few... weeks... months? dunno.. that explains my weight drop from 79kg till now 72kg. some nights i just have some almond nuts and tomato juice for dinner, no supper, and zzzzzzzzzzzz. other nites i have a slice of wholemeal bread with nutella, okay i usually end up eating 2 slices coz nutella is SO SO GOOD! maybe nutella will be one of the keys or ingredients to forgiveness! u gotta love nutella!~



I vaguely remember another quote about Character. "Character isn't inherited. One builds it daily by the way one thinks and acts, thought by thought, action by action."

Yupe, one needs to be strong in order to forgive. It is never easy to forgive but if we were not to forgive, those grudges will eat us on the inside. It is really hard to let go of the hurts, but it is truly when we really let go of them, that we really could move on.

Colossians 3:12-14
Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.

I do agree that character is not something that we are born with and it is something that we learn through experiences.

These verses from Romans 5:3-5 say it all:
Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.
