The Amazing Amish

I can't help but be in complete awe over how the Amish community in Pennsylvania has been handling this week's tragedy. Today's story of how the Amish have been reaching out to the family of the attacker - and helping Roberts' family mourn his death - particularly amazed me. When was the last time you saw that kind of love and forgiveness?

It has been amazing. May God use this horror to awaken the materialist and the backslidden to the beauty of His grace, which passes all understanding.

I can't remember when. It really is inspiring and beautiful to see them reach out this way. What amazing, faith-filled people they are. God bless them!
