Recently in a local Plain People community ( Anabaptist/Amish/Mennonite ) a tragedy took place. As a family was taking a load of corn in their wagon, to be milled, they were hit by a drunk driver. The father and the young daughter 13 years old were in the wagon. The young daughter was killed in the accident. She was their only child.
The police arrested the driver and placed him in jail. The authorities contacted the parents and the elders of this Mennonite community about legal proceedings.
The couple, in the Name of The Lord JESUS refused to press charges. The elders and brothers and sisters backed them and all were in agreement.
The authorities were astounded! They had never seen anything like this. They have asked this community to come to the county jail and preach the Gospel message of Salvation in CHRIST to the inmates which is about 60 or so at this time.
The drunk driver remains in custody in the jail and must listen to the Salvation message along with the rest of the inmates. Although the parents have forgiven the man totally, it may be that the authorities will press charges against him. But as far as the parents are concerned, for their part he is forgiven. THE BALL IS NOW IN THE DRUNK DRIVERS COURT.
This is INDEED a HARD thing to do and can ONLY be done in The Power of The HOLY SPIRIT, through JESUS CHRIST. This couple returned good for evil and loved their neighbor as themselves. They know they will see their little daughter again. I wanted to share this. The Peace of The LORD+ be with you.
