When we hear a story of the abuse of a child or the abuse of women almost all people are appalled by instances of that kind.

We must not only speak about forgiveness and reconciliation, we must act on these principles.

God is patient with us to become the God's children he wants us to be but you really can see him weeping.

There would be those of us who say that in many ways, you worry about what the Jews in Israel are doing to themselves. Yes, they may at the moment have incredible power and are supported almost unconditionally by especially America, but most of the West as well. Yet what they are doing is contrary to the best teaching and highest teachings of their faith.

You think sometimes that maybe if the person who hurt you is clobbered you will feel a little better. But it actually doesn't.

Without forgiveness there can be no future for a relationship between individuals or within and between nations.

We are interconnected.
