It is with that attitude that I must approach his appology. He has offered it. I accept on face value his contrition. It is not a matter of him having done something to me. It is a matter of me not holding him guilty some kind of grudge for what he has done.

Ferd, that was sorta my thoughts. If my feelings are negative toward him and his speech causes me to be vexed in spirit then I feel that it is to my benefit to find forgiveness in my heart as I pray for him and his family. He won't know one thing about my act of forgiveness, but I sure will. Just thinkin'
