THE GOSPEL! No room for unforgiveness and hate. Seeing all from eternal perspective...It’s living and walking as Jesus in the earth...God bless this young man! Praying for them both!!
-Helen Utegaard
Can you imagine forgiving the person who killed your own brother? Well, that's exactly what happened in a Dallas courtroom yesterday. Police officer Amber Guyger was sentenced to a decade in prison for the murder of Botham Jean, and this young man’s family was there. In a powerful expression of selfless love and mercy, Botham’s younger brother, 18-yr-old Brandt, surprised those watching by sharing with Amber the only thing that could totally change her life forever. Brandt told her, "If you truly are sorry, I know I can speak for myself, I forgive you ... I think giving your life to Christ would be the best thing that Botham would want for you. I love you as a person, and I don't wish anything bad on you.”
That's what the power of Jesus Christ can do in a life. The Bible tells us, “We love because he first loved us” (1 John 4:19). The judge also gave Amber a priceless gift—copy of God’s Word, the Bible.
