A "God Box Moment" from the Lydia Center...

On Thursday, March 5th, I went to Sight and Sound and saw “Behold the Lamb." I saw how Jesus took the beatings and whipping and then was hung on the cross.

That night I when I got back to the center I forgave my father for all the abuse that he had done to me in my childhood. I prayed to God and told him, “ I cannot judge him anymore; He’s in your court now.”

Also, through the play I realized that when Jesus was hanging on the cross and His Father rejected Him, He felt alone for that moment of time; sometimes I feel alone and now I know He knows what I am going through in that moment.
