Forgiveness...
Jesus forgave those who beat him and placed him on the cross. In fact, Jesus went to the cross FOR those people. Jesus also forgives you and I our wrong doing. Jesus forgives us when we put stuff before him. Jesus forgives us when we have hurt others. Jesus forgives those who have hurt us.
God is not out to get you, but to provide you a new way of living, and a new people to live in a new way.
In case you have never been told this before, God is on your side, and the side of the other guy too. Are you?
