Forgiveness
Eric Smallridge was
given the opportunity to redeem his mistakes when forgiveness was brought upon
the heart of Renee. One night, after carelessly drinking and driving, Eric hit
a car that contained two twenty-year old girls, Megan and Lisa. Both of the
girls were killed immediately after the impact. After the accident Eric was
sentenced to twenty years in prison for the murder of both girls. Suddenly, one
day a woman came forth asking the judge to reduce Eric’s imprisonment time. The
most surprising thing was that the woman who was asking for this was none other
than Megan’s mom. The judge obliged and soon Lisa’s family also came to forgive
Eric for his enormous mistake and for taking the girl's lives that horrific night.
Currently, both Eric and Renee visit various high schools in order to give
their testimony and to help people understand that drinking and driving only
brings tragedies to everyone around the person who drinks. Subconsciously, they
both are teaching the power of forgiveness and how it can truly go on to heal
one’s heart.
Good Job! Keep this up.
