Miracle of forgiveness

My dad died February 23rd 2010 and even though he died, his death offered me more than he gave me while he was alive.

My dad abused me and refused to be a parent but when he came ill with cancer he found peace and struggled in the last few months of his life to be a parent.

He was not even able to care for himself and tried to be there for his three daughters.I was able to forgive him because of Gods grace.

He died listening to How Great Thou Art and the presence of God filled the room. My aunt told me he looked straight up as if he saw someone like Jesus coming for him.

For fifteen years my dad hated me and the last three months of his life there was a total transformation of forgiveness. God can do anything.

His love transforms hearts and forgives sins.
Me and my sisters have the kind of peace about his death we never had in his living. Thank God! True miracle is forgiveness of sin.
