Forgiveness and Joy

Two years ago, I met a young Ethiopian boy named Zekarias through some pretty traumatic circumstances. His young 7 yr old sister was brutally murdered.
By his father.

My neighbor came sobbing into my house and told me the terrible news. I had never met these people but my heart went out to this woman. Apparently, the husband had contracted malaria and as sometimes happens here, it went cerebral, caused delirium, and basically he went berserk.

He attacked his own daughter with a machete and killed her.
