How horribly sad. And how beautiful that those families forgave and supported the widow and her children. Thank you for sharing that story. That is how the Church should respond. The fact that we often don't is obvious in how others respond to us as a whole. :(<br /><br />The Holocaust is horrific. The stories of forgiveness and redemption which come from is are amazing. I love the story of Corrie Ten Boom. She puts everything out there. Her honesty is beautiful.<br />www.dogtreatweb.comFleahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03412755038083750088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8253063165862154579.post-34740623722306013812013-03-11T05:01:54.073-06:002013-03-11T05:01:54.073-06:00An excellent post and perfect for this season of l...An excellent post and perfect for this season of lent.2browndawgshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15792375606466389228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8253063165862154579.post-35948599575149646422013-03-11T04:12:05.741-06:002013-03-11T04:12:05.741-06:00If more people could forgive, like most have alrea...If more people could forgive, like most have already said, the world would be a better place..Lovely post Goose and love all the photo's. xxooxx<br /><br /><a href="http://www.molliesdogtreats.co.uk" rel="nofollow">Mollie and Alfie</a>Molliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14734648156265506471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8253063165862154579.post-61103216624126515942013-03-10T22:12:51.218-06:002013-03-10T22:12:51.218-06:00I think that learning to truly forgive someone who...I think that learning to truly forgive someone who has hurt a person so very badly is a gift - and it's one that's hard to attain (your Amish example is incredible). I've learned to forgive many things - almost everything - but I have one secret, a deep secret of an act that I've never been able to forgive. More than 20 years ago, my first dog was murdered with a gun by a drunken felon who then held me at gunpoint. People who heard the shots called the police, which probably saved my life. That is one act that I've never been able to forgive. I hate to admit that, but it's true.<br /><br />You've made me think about that again... and whether I can find a way to cleanse the hatred for the murderer from my soul. I'm going to try. <br /><br />Thank you for a powerful post.KBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16885661679762446456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8253063165862154579.post-38111969626562982472013-03-10T19:10:59.601-06:002013-03-10T19:10:59.601-06:00A good message, and I have to admit that I've ...A good message, and I have to admit that I've done a lot of reading on this very topic and this very parable is one that I've read many times. I have been really, really hurt by the actions and words from members of my family and have really had to search my soul and heart to find forgiveness for what they did. But through it I've learned that forgiveness doesn't mean forgetting, and it doesn't mean that what they did was okay. It just means that I've let go of the anger and hurt towards them and have found that they have no place in my life, and I'm okay with that. As I said, it wasn't easy, but it has been worth it because I've found peace. ~Kim at Golden Pines~https://www.blogger.com/profile/02001523468339091407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8253063165862154579.post-67540611356012005692013-03-10T18:21:02.989-06:002013-03-10T18:21:02.989-06:00Oh, I loved that one Goose!!
