>All responded this time, except one small elderly lady.
>
>"Mrs. Jones?
>
>Are you not willing to forgive your enemies?"
>
>"I don't have any." She replied, smiling sweetly.
>
>"Mrs. Jones, that is very unusual. How old are you?"
>
>"Ninety-eight." she replied.
>
>"Oh Mrs. Jones, would you please come down in front & tell us all how a
>
>person can live ninety-eight years & not have an enemy in the world?"
>
>The little sweetheart of a lady tottered down the aisle, faced the
