It was the start of my healing journey, the way of forgiveness. I tasted mercy, God’s mercy, toward me and the power of Jesus to free me from the effects of the past. And gradually, God took me further into his love. He said, “I am calling you to forgive—to forgive Germany and Germans—to forgive the evil done to you and your parents.”
I asked him for the grace to forgive, and, you know, God delights to answer such a prayer. He led George and me back to the Eifel, and he opened the way to practice forgiveness and reconciliation in the actual physical place of my childhood loss.
