What a beautiful display of God’s overwhelming grace that the families of the Amish victims would offer love to the wife and children of the murderer of their children.  This is just so hard for the world to understand, but what an opportunity for us to share with them that it isn’t by their own strength that they are able to do this, but by the grace of Almighty God.  We all wonder how we would respond in the same situation, and we can’t proclaim with pride that we would be the same, but we can fall on the mercy of God and pray that He would do the same through us.  People that have given their lives for the Lord didn’t do it on their own power, but by the Holy Spirit working through them.  The strength that these families are receiving isn’t from a natural source, but divine.  Praise God!  To Him be all the praise.
