October - December, 2006
Two years ago my daughter and I were involved in an accident. We were uninsured. We went to court and paid the fees. I thought this was over until September 1st, 2006, when I received a motion for a lawsuit.
My first thought was to get angry and defensive. Then I thought, “I must choose Holy Spirit, not ego.” I laid the papers in a box. A few days later, I picked up the papers and decided, “I will turn this over to Holy Spirit and ask for His instructions.” The papers said that I had to make an appearance and file a response. I asked the Holy spirit, “What kind of a response?” This is what He gave me: “Ask for forgiveness of everyone in the situation.” I wrote a letter asking for forgiveness and attached it to the response.
On the day our case was called, the plaintif lawyer and I want up to the judge. The judge and lawyer had quick words. The judge then asked me what I had to say. I stated, “I plea for forgiveness of both sides.”
There was such a surprised look on the judge’s face. She asked us to go outside and come to an agreement. When we talked, the lawyer said, “Ms. Cage, I apologize for any embarrassment and inconvenience I have caused by this. My client’s insurance company will not pay anything to them.” He asked if I would help by giving a statement that we were uninsured during this accident and telling our side of the story. He would present this to the insurance company. I could see the face of Christ in his eyes.
“Forgiveness lets the veil be lifted up that hides the face of Christ from those who look with unforgiving eyes upon the world.”
