Doing EXACTLY what Jesus would do

A man enters a store, owned by Mohammad Somial, intending to rob using a baseball bat as his weapon of choice. When the owner presented his rifle in his own defense the robber immediately
dropped his bat and dropped to knees begging for forgiveness. The store owner forgave on the spot and began to pray with the would be robber. As it turns out the robber needed food to feed his family and in an act of desperation made a bad decision. Something we've ALL done.

Mr. Somial did EXACTLY what Jesus would've done, he forgave, prayed and gave the man 40.00 dollars and a loaf of bread, and sent him on his way asking him to promise to never steal again.

What an example of Jesus on this earth. We should all take a lesson from this man, and apply it to our lives.
