my husband and I were in a snow storm,
in Chicago traffic, on a Sunday morning.

A car passed us, on the right,
with the license plate - PSALM32.
I pulled out my Bible app to see what it said...
it started this way...
"How blessed is the one
whose transgression is forgiven,
whose sin is covered!"
A few minutes after reading Psalm 32

we were hit by another car and our car was totaled.
Our injuries could have been a lot worse!
Yet, I was angry at the other driver...
How could he?!!?!??
When our car stopped, it was facing this sign.

reminded us to be like JESUS in how we forgive...
forgive even the guy who hit us!
Today, as we strive to keep our eyes on JESUS,
let's focus on these words in Luke 23:34 -
But JESUS was saying,
“FATHER, forgive them;
for they do not know what they are doing.”
And they cast lots,
dividing up HIS garments among themselves.
