Explain accusation in your own understanding.

Source

Accusation in my own understanding is a situation whereby a person is wrongly blamed for what he/she did not really do or no nothing about.

Alot of time people are being accused wrongly and most of the time, the innocent person suffer the consequences of the accusations before the truth usually comes out.

Alot of people are in the cell room, prison etc suffering for being wrongly accused. And it is so pathetic. Accusation is not a good thing at all, and I won't pray for even my enemies to be wrongly accused because of the shame and embarrassment that comes with it.

Tell us a situation whereby you were accused of something and how you felt.

Back then in secondary school, during my ss3 days. I was reserved, discipline and always mind my own business. Being a senior prefect then, I do not go out during break, I prefer staying in the class to study when others are out, so I can be a very good example to other students.

So on this faithful day, as usual everybody was out and I was the only person left in the class studying, few minutes later I was pressed so I had to leave the class to the bathroom to ease myself. I never knew that one of my classmates was so jealous of my reputation in school and was planning so hard to destroy my reputation.

So immediately I left the class to ease myself, she then came inside and carried my friends money and put it inside my back and she left before I returned to the class. I did not even bother to check my back when I returned back to the class because I never knew that someone has put something inside my bag without my consent.

So few minutes later, the break was over and everyone returned to the class, my friend was looking for her money but couldn't find it, so she started shouting who carried my money, who carried my money and she reported the case to our form mistress. The form mistress entered our class immediately the reported the case to her, and a thorough search was conducted on everyone's bag.

And to my greatest surprise that money missing was found in my bag, at that moment I felt so surprised, shamed and embarrassed. Everyone started calling me senior prefect wey the steal. I was accused of stealing the money, all my efforts to proof my innocence was abortive because nobody believed I did not steal the money.

So I was severely punished for what I did not do and was suspended for one week from being the senior prefect. It was actually the most embarrassing moment and the most bad experience I had in my secondary school.

Was the truth finally out that you were innocent?

Yes! yes! yes!. Thank God the truth finally came out that I was innocent and my reputation and position as the senior prefect was restored and gained back. I was super happy and excited that day, because finally my innocence has been confirmed. She apologized and I forgave her.

This was how the truth was finally out.

After three days, the lady that planned that, confessed that she was the person who put the money inside my back simply because of jealousy, she said to everyone that she just wanted to spoil my reputation in the school and make staff and students to hate me.

She noticed that I was loved by everyone, I was my principal's favorite, all the staff including all student both my Juniors and classnates loves me so much. So she was jealous and that was what lead her to planning that evil act.

So she sincerely apologized and I forgave her. And we became cool once again!!

Is it right to hate those who accuse us unnecessarily?

To me, I think it is not good to hate who accuse us unnecessarily. Forgiveness is key to a healthy leaving and there is nothing you gain from hating a person.

God Almighty forgave us of our iniquities, and also instructed us not to hold grudges against anyone. so why then will you hate who accuse me unnecessarily instead of forgiving them.

Let us learn to forgive those who accuse us, I know very well how painful and embarrassing it is to accused unnecessarily, because I was once a Victim, but still let's learn to forgive regardless!

Shun HATRED and embrace FORGIVENESS🤗🤗

I sincerely appreciate your presence on my blog 🙌
