“I am about to create new heavens and a new earth; the things of
the past shall not be remembered or come to mind. Instead, there shall always
be rejoicing and happiness in what I create.” – Is. 65: 17-18
"Forgive and forget.”
How often have we heard that phrase nonchalantly thrown around as if the
alliteration and rhythm of the words makes the execution as
free-flowing as it sounds? When we are mired in our own wounds, forgiving someone
who has offended us is a difficult enough proposition. So forgetting that
offense is the last thing on our mind. What about the sins we have committed? I
struggle with letting go the things I have done and continually to do wrong.
There are periods where guilt saturates my conscience. My rebuttal to “Forgive
and forget” is often “Improbable and impossible”.
Mercifully, that is not
Jesus’s rebuttal. One of the most poignant scene in Mel Gibson’s
The Passion of Christ is when Jesus meets Mary on the road to Calvary and says,
“See, mother, I make all things new.” The scene is heart-wrenching
cinematographically because we see the physical suffering of Jesus meeting the
emotional suffering of Mary. However, what touches our core is realizing
through His passion, Jesus is gathering us closer to Himself to recreate
us anew. He is saying we are not what we have done in the past, nor are we
what others have done to us. Our sins and our wounds are not the final
word.
In Isaiah, God the Father
goes even farther. Not only are we recreated anew, but “the things of
the past shall not be remembered or come to mind.” God willingly and even
joyfully chooses to erase our painful past from His omniscient mind. God the
prodigal father achingly waits for us, wipes away our misery, and clothes
us afresh with His delight, all the while forgetting the offenses. I take
solace that although I wrestle with forgiving and forgetting the sins others
and myself, God is recreating and rejoicing in me through my struggles.
Merciful Jesus, thank
you for being patient with me and continually recreating me to be more like
You so that I may in some small way participate with You to make
all things new.

Great Lent is a great test of strength and will of man. Not everyone is able to hold this position from the beginning to the end.
