Ginni Thomas and forgiveness
Forgiveness is about letting go and moving on. It’s the law of release. Whose
offense you fail to forgive, you carry the burden of for the rest of your life.
Obviously, from her recent outreach to Ms. Anita Hill, Ginni Thomas has thought
often about the offense between Hill and her husband. With an unwavering
loyalty to both her husband and the Christian faith, she followed the
admonishment of her creator to engage in a dialogue of reconciliation
toward releasing everyone from this burden.
Just remember, not all prisons are made of concrete and steel. There are the
prisons of the mind such as bitterness and unforgiveness. Thomas tried to
sincerely elevate the issue to a place of healing and not who is right or who
is wrong. However, Ginni Thomas miscalculated Ms. Hill’s reaction to her olive
branch. It is clear by Ms. Hill’s response that right or wrong is more
important than healing and reconciliation.
Was Ginni Thomas correct in following the mandates of her faith, regardless of
the risk of rejection? Remember, individuals such as Mrs. Thomas don’t risk
national and global ridicule unless motivated by strong conviction. She
considered the risk and potential fallout, yet did the righteous thing. Would you?
