Thank you Carla!  Forgiveness is not a very strong characteristic of mine,
but I am working on it.  I have a print out on my desk of an email that Rev
Ev sent a while back and I read it every day.  I will add yours to it.  I
am working on this area of my life. :)

There was no name on this original email about the "Target Jesus story"  So
how bold a witness is this anyway?

 But -  Forgiveness is a terrific topic.

When we forgive the things that seem unforgivable, it really lets the
beauty
of Jesus shine forth.  It is tough to "let it go."  Why?  Because when we
hang on to how horrible their actions were, we can feel we are so much
higher, better than "them".  But that is a lie,  we are all capable of some
pretty nasty stuff.

grateful to be forgiven and able to forgive... Carla
