That is grace!

The story of the shooting of the Amish school girls in Pennsylvania was tragic, however there is a light and a lesson in the story.

"Families of some of the children murdered in rural Pennsylvania have reportedly invited the wife of their killer to the funerals.
As vigils were held to remember the five Amish schoolgirls murdered in their classroom and pray for the five seriously wounded, the healing process began in the deeply religious community."

Now I am a Christian, but I just don't know that I could do that. I realize that the wife had nothing to do with the killings of those girls, but.....

These families showed what real grace and mercy is. They knew that the wife of the man who killed their children was hurting too and they reached out to her in love. There is indeed a lesson for all of us in this story.
