Imagine Jesus asking you to visit the person who took the life of your own child. Not only that, but how would you respond if you felt called to give that person a Bible? How would you feel?



On a recent episode of The Patrick Madrid Show, Patrick shared an incredibly touching letter from Sherry, a listener from Milwaukee. Her story is one of heartache, faith, and an extraordinary act of forgiveness that really hits home.



Sherry's Story:



The Letter: Sherry wrote to Patrick, feeling the need to share something deeply personal. At the National Eucharistic Congress, she and her husband attended a morning Mass and found themselves sitting next to Patrick. She saw this as a sign from God, prompting her to open up about her experience.



A Tragic Loss: Sherry revealed that her daughter and unborn granddaughter were tragically murdered by her daughter's supervisor from Home Depot. The pain and sorrow from this loss are unimaginable.



A Divine Message: During adoration at the Congress, Sherry felt Jesus speak to her heart. He told her to visit the prison and give a Bible to the man who killed her daughter, with his name engraved on it. Jesus conveyed that just as this man's name would be on the Bible, he is also etched in Jesus's heart, emphasizing that everyone is held in His heart.



Steps Toward Forgiveness: Sherry and her husband have begun the process of visiting the prison. She described the Congress as life-changing, propelling her towards this incredible act of forgiveness.



Patrick's Response:



Patrick hoped that the Bible, carrying both the tragic and redemptive messages, would touch the heart of the man responsible for her suffering.



A Heroic Act: Patrick described Sherry's act of forgiveness as heroic and prayed that the graces she experienced at the Congress would continue to flow through her and touch the life of the man she is forgiving.



Sherry's letter is a powerful reminder of forgiveness, mercy, and healing. While the pain is probably soul crushing, she still chose to show Jesus' love to this person.



May Sherry's journey bring her healing and peace, and may her loved ones rest in eternal peace. Let's also pray for the conversion of this man in prison. Lord, heal His heart.
