Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do. Luke 23:34
Meditation by Thomas Wharton, St. Patrick School 5th Grade Teacher

It brings me to the realization of the hurts I inflict on others that I have no idea about. Little moments of neglect, thoughtlessness work that way. But I am deeply aware of my own little winces or worse. May we all practice forgiveness as the Lord did.
