Still thinking about this talk from yesterday...
A new young couple to our ward spoke yesterday at church. He’s
24 and she’s 23, and they have a little 9 month old baby boy.
Her topic given to speak on was: "how to forgive especially when
the person does not apologize."
She lifted up one arm and showed how she was born with no
fingers on her right hand. She said from the minute she started
school until the minute she finished, she was made fun of about it,
and bullied.
She would often come home from school and cry to her Mom, and
tell her she was angry at God for making her this way.
When she would cry and pray about it almost immediately she
would get the strong impression that she was chosen by Heavenly
Father to carry this burden.
She said her trial has proven over the years to be a huge
blessing to her.
She learned that she needed to forgive those who made fun of her.
She would just tell herself that what they did was between them
and God, and her job was to forgive. She learned how to do this
well through the years.
