SPREADING THE GOSPEL THROUGH FORGIVENESS

I don’t know if
y’all have heard of the Cleveland  shooting and how an individual
decided to take the life of an innocent old man (a total stranger to the
culprit
) because his girlfriend had refused to return his call…
First
reaction everyone (😡😡😡) I know right, but something shocking
happened when cable news network CNN reached out to the family, of late Robert Godwin Snr, 74, they made a shocking
revelation. “They had forgiven him and wanted him to know Jesus loves
him and he had a good side,  and he should kindly turn himself in to the police”. Saddly that never happened as he was last seen at Mc donalds and news outlets carrying he had committed suicide (such a cheap escape)
If
that’s isn’t one of the toughest act of bravery I’ve seen this year I
don’t know, what else is. But I learn’t few lessons, that their single act of courage
at forgiving him on such a platform would have influenced thousands of
people who would wonder where they got that strength and spirit from.
Forgiveness
is one of the strongest ways to show people that there exist a greater
force than us who has showed us an example for us to do likewise. coincidentally it fell on an Easter month where the love of Christ was shown by laying his life even while we where yet sinners.
New International Version
Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing”.

Matthew 6:14-15 NIV
For if you forgive men when they
sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you
do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.

My outfit

loved the shade of this jacket, I got from SHOP DESIRE 1709 and the fit physically is amazing I
think the pictures did it less justice. and my bag is from
