I'm realizing that we interact with people in our lives every day and we don't know what keeps them up at night. God's eyes are perfect. To see through His eyes is a gift. I cherish Rachel's example of bravery to face her adversaries...and her Grace in His to forgive.

My mother was murdered by two young people, thats's very painful. I forgave them in my heart but I don't think I would want to go and talk to them in prison. I heard enough of them in court. I don't hate them, just feel very sorry for my mum, for her horrible last minutes of life. And just miss her.

The deepest concept to learn about forgiveness is understanding the Atonement of Christ how it restored us through our pain, it also help us understand the eternal nature of God which is LOVE! CHRIST is our Savior in all aspect of our lives ❤ I love this video because I walked the same place which this sister is talking about

I can relate as well... my uncle and 2 cousins were murdered in Mexico... they were both shot multiple times and died very painful. after returning home from my mission my mom told me of what happened to them, I was very very very heartbroken. they were really good and successful people in Mexico. the thief's were never arrested and no justice took place even until this day I wonder who they are and why did they kill my other side of my family? 1 of my cousin wanted to be a dancer and the other wanted his own business in other words both of them had goals in life and now they will never reach their goal. I forgive them but I still have a little grudge on them for killing my innocent uncle and 2 cousins. I do believe in forgiving others but it is one of the hardest commandments to follow.
@hammastytava7 жыл бұрын
Honestly I can relate, my friend who visited Mexico unfortunately heard that one of his friends family members was murdered outside his station (he was a police officer) he was a straightforward father and a great dad from the stories that were told around his community. His son hell bent on revenge ended up getting revenge and murdered the two teens along side with their father. and a month later he was found dead in a ditch. Revenge never works, spilling more blood does nothing but create a river of regret and pain. The best someone can do is pray for understanding and coping for a loss. I hope you can make it through your loss and come to an understanding of some sort that will ease the pain that you are going through.

I would love to see another video where they spoke to their side of the story, and how it felt to receive forgiveness from her. that would be amazing as well. Forgiveness is so powerful. What a great video.

Psalms 66:17 I cried out to him with my mouth; his praise was on my tongue. If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened.. Psalms 68:5 A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling. God sets the lonely in families, he leads out the prisoners with singing; but the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land. Isaiah 26:3 You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you. Revelation 7:14 They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.. Never again will they hunger; never again will they thirst.. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.

I am sorry to hear you were bullied, it is never fun to be the target of simple minded individuals who feel they need to try and steal or ruin your happiness to puff themselves up a tiny bit. Resilience is borne out of adversity, use the experience to grow your faith to search for your inner hero. Give your pain and suffering over to the Lord, he will replace this with peace and purpose. You were made to be more than a conqueror! Jesus won't let you down, give it over to him.

Listening To others makes me not Feel Alone. My son was heavy into drugs. We begged him To quit but he wouldn't listen. We know he was murdered and we can't find his body. It's been almost 3yrs now and no one Will even listen. All I've got from the local and state police. I can't sleep or eat. Everyday is the same, I try solving his murder, who did it, and why. I really don't even want To live. We've heard 2 stories of what happened. We heard They beat him with concrete blocks, shot in the back of his head and fed his body To pigs. The other they tore off his clothes, shot him in the head and put Weights on him and threw him in a river. I pray every night and day To get justice for him and peace in my families life.

@Efa_Birch2 жыл бұрын
Daisy, forgiveness isn't done for the person who offended you, however they did so- whether it was falling short on an expectation or murdering your mother. It doesn't- it can't, actually -absolve them of the necessity of restitution. Forgiveness is done for YOU. Think of it like applying medicine to a scrape or rash. The offense is the wound. You choosing to forgive them is you choosing to clean and dress the wound, whereas not doing so is choosing to leave the wound open to fester. If you can indeed honestly think that if somebody murdered you, and one of your loved ones forgave them for doing so, that you would hate that loved one, then perhaps you'd want to study the concept of forgiveness more thoroughly, as my explanation(following) is actually pretty skimpy. In short, your loved one is not letting your murderer "get away with it" by forgiving the murderer of their personal offense to said-loved one. Your loved one is instead opening the door to their own healing by unlocking themselves from an obsession with your murder. Which they would never be able to move past without forgiving your murderer. They can still grieve you, they can still miss you, but they won't be stuck at the time you died. Instead, they can move on. Does that help you see how people can find the capability to forgive such heinous offenses?
