There are people in this world who can do harmful things and still move through life as if nothing happened — as if words didn’t wound, trust wasn’t broken, or hearts weren’t affected. It happens in families, between parents and children, among siblings, in marriages, friendships, and workplaces. Pain doesn’t always come from strangers; sometimes, it’s carried by familiar hands.

It raises a question that lingers quietly in many hearts: do those who cause hurt ever feel it themselves? Do they ever think about the unseen weight of their actions, or the spiritual consequences that may follow?

The truth is, not everyone walks through life with the same awareness. Some people have learned to silence their conscience just to protect their pride. Others may feel guilt deep inside but bury it beneath denial, distractions, or self-justification. Some are so used to chaos that they can no longer recognize peace, or how far they’ve drifted from it.

Yet, regardless of whether remorse ever shows, the heart always knows. Time has a way of revealing what’s hidden. The soul remembers even what the mind tries to forget. As Scripture says, “Whatever one sows, that will he also reap.” (Galatians 6:7). Every action leaves an imprint — not just on others, but on the spirit of the one who did it.

Still, this isn’t a story about judgment. It’s a reminder of mercy — that change is always possible, and that truth, no matter how long it’s been buried, will rise again when the heart is ready to face it. God’s justice is not only about reckoning; it’s also about awakening.

So if you’ve been hurt by someone who seems unbothered, remember this: your peace is not tied to their remorse. God sees the unseen. Time reveals what’s hidden. And while they may silence their conscience for a while, truth has a way of finding its voice again — softly, but surely.

Forgive where you can, release what you must, and keep your heart tender. The way others live is not yours to carry — but the way you respond is what shapes your peace, your strength, and your walk with God.

“For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil.”
— Ecclesiastes 12:14

Until next time,
