"Father, FORGIVE them; for they do not know what they are doing."
Luke 23:34 NAS

The above link reminded of two things that I am very thankful for...1) I have a gracious, loving, and forgiving God. 2) That I have a wonderful "living" word by which I can live and use to teach right from wrong.
I have been taught to love people like this...though it is difficult. I have been taught to "forgive," even when forgiveness is not sought. I have been taught to respect and treat others the way I would expect them to treat me. I have been taught to be thankful that God has given me the love needed to be tolerant...even when others are not. I have been taught to be thankful that God is who he is, and that he has given me grace.
moving on...
