"God Sees the Truth, But
"God Sees the Truth, But Waits" is a short story by Leo Tolstoy. Here's a summary:
The story begins with a merchant named Ivan Dmitrich Aksionov, who lives in Vladimir, Russia. He is happily married and runs a successful business. One fateful day, Aksionov decides to travel to the fair in Nizhny Novgorod to conduct some business. On his way, he encounters a fellow traveler, a young man named Makar Semyonich, who asks to join him on the journey. Aksionov agrees, and they travel together.
During the night, Aksionov wakes up to find that he is being arrested by the police. He is accused of murdering a merchant with whom he had shared a room at the inn. Aksionov protests his innocence, but he is taken into custody and eventually convicted of the crime. Despite his vehement denials and pleas, he is sentenced to life imprisonment in Siberia.
In prison, Aksionov undergoes a transformation. He becomes a devout Christian and forgives Makar Semyonich, believing that his false friend had framed him out of jealousy. Years pass, and one day a group of new prisoners arrives at the prison. Among them is Makar Semyonich, who has finally confessed to the murder of the merchant for which Aksionov was wrongly convicted.
Moved by Aksionov's forgiveness and kindness, Makar Semyonich reveals the truth to the authorities. Aksionov is pardoned and released after twenty-six years of unjust imprisonment. However, the years of suffering and separation from his family have taken their toll, and Aksionov dies shortly after returning to his village.
The story explores themes of justice, forgiveness, and redemption. It highlights the idea that while human justice may be flawed and delayed, divine justice ultimately prevails. Aksionov's unwavering faith and forgiveness in the face of adversity serve as a powerful testament to the enduring strength of the human spirit.
