I can never watch this without feeling some sense of shame, we hold onto such petty and trivial things at times. To Err is Human to forgive is Divine. These people are very spiritually intelligent - I have children, I am not sure if I could be so forgiving and so full of love. Deeply moving clip.

@BayAreaOrBust not entirely true God forgives even those that don't think they need it.

I'm not religious but I heard this amazing quote from Constantine the Great's main right hand man: "God forgives those who ask for it" How true is that!

I'd like to use this for my Priest Quorum lesson tomorrow. I think it'll be a powerful video that will emphasize the miracle of forgiveness.

And wow, I commented like, 5 seconds into the vid. I just now got to the picture of the school house. Honestly, that's within a 10 minute walk of my house. I grew up with that schoolhouse being there. Now, you can't even tell that it ever existed; it's just a field. The only thing that remains is a tiny bit of the driveway. For years, people from every part of the nation would bring flowers such as a tribute. It's remarkable that their amazing story of forgiveness was able to reach so many.

I feel so blessed to have grown up immersed in the Amish community. I'm not amish, but the victims of the Nickle Mine school shooting are practically my neighbors. It was such a humbling, awe inspiring message and I feel so blessed be taught a lesson in forgiveness from these amazing people.

Wow....how touching and mind opening! I think there are not many that can say they hold no grudges, that they have forgiven all of everything...Makes you re-think things!
