Hakuna Matata
17. November. 24

I met Eddy on my trip to Tanzania. He told me the history of his homeland. Tanzania was colonized at the end of the 19th century. Eddy’s ancestors were oppressed and exploited. The German colonial power turned rich at the expense of the inhabitants of Tanzania. Anyone who did not obey the new government had to expect death. Several thousand people lost their lives during this time.

Shocked by the injustice that Eddy described to me, I asked him whether he finds it difficult to meet a German today because of this tragic history. ‘Hakuna Matata!’ was his answer, which means everything is fine or no arguments. ‘We have to forgive each other, it’s much easier to live that way,’ he said. Eddy understood that peace is only possible through forgiveness. This also applies to the relationship between man and God.

‘In Jesus we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.’

Colossians 1:14

Our rebellion has led to a separation in our relationship with God. God wants peace in this relationship. Through his death on the cross, Jesus paved the way for peace between you and him. He decided to forgive you.

Do you accept the gift of forgiveness?
