So you think I am not following Christ because I am not forgiving the person who murdered that child, stuffed her in a suitcase and threw her in a lake.
You are right. I am not forgiving as Christ said I should.
I can try to forgive them, and I have, but it's not there. I don’t feel forgiveness towards this person no matter how hard I want to. It is not in me no matter how hard I look for it.
I can say, “I forgive themâ€, but that would be a lie. It would just be blank words with no meaning. That is my flaw… my sin (not my only ones).
Christ is better than I. He is God in human form. He is perfect. And he forgives me, and he forgives that monster who killed the little girl.
That the creator of the Universe loves us and forgives us, and only asks that we believe in him.
That is Christianity, and that is not tragic. I can aspire to be Christ like, and I try, but I won’t come close. And he will love me regardless
