The Life of Service of a Flawed Good Man

I am a Christian. I believe in God's forgiveness. I believe in the power of redemption. The greatest charge that Jesus left us with is the care for the "least of thee." For that reason alone Senator Kennedy's life speaks well of him.

Most times the person asking God for forgiveness is the last person who forgives himself. I am not surprised that the Senator grieved his actions that caused the death of Mary Jo Kopechne. I am not surprised that he bore that burden his entire life. To his detractors I say that the Senator got away with nothing. Every article written about him after Ms. Kopechne's death always included a reference to it. I cannot imagine living with condemnation for decades. I do think that it was for him a harsh punishment in and of itself.

God loves him in spite of the wrong things he did. I love him because of all of the right things he did unselfishly for America. He was a good man with flaws but a good man to the end. I miss him already.
