Grace Chooses to See Forgiveness
Grace Chooses to See Forgiveness
Max Lucado: This is Max Lucado. Victoria Ruvolo doesn't remember the 18-year-old boy leaning out the window of, of all things, holding a frozen turkey. He threw it at her windshield. Crashing through the glass, it shattered Victoria's face like a dinner plate on concrete.
John 13:14 and 15 says, "Since I, the Lord and teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other's feet. Do as I have done to you."
Victoria Ruvolo did. Months later, she stood face to face with her offender in court. He was no longer cocky. He was trembling, tearful, and apologetic. Six months behind bars, five years probation. Everyone in the courtroom objected to the light sentence.
He sobbed, but she spoke. The light sentence was her idea. She said, "I forgive you and I want your life to be the best it can be." Grace does this. Grace chooses to give the forgiveness that's been received.
