Sharoon Learns to Forgive with Superbook

On the beautiful island of Bali, known for its vibrant culture and stunning landscapes, lives an 11-year-old girl named Sharoon. She is the eldest of two siblings and comes from a warm Christian family. Her father works diligently at a workshop, while her mother lovingly cares for the household. Since childhood, Sharoon has been raised in the love of God and has actively participated in Sunday school.

At first, Sharoon believed school would be a fun and exciting place. But reality was different. As a minority student, she faced harsh treatment from her classmates—she was pushed, her watch was taken and broken, and even her lunch was thrown away. These painful experiences made her reluctant to go to school, leaving her heart heavy with hurt and fear.

Everything began to change one day at Sunday school when Sharoon watched “Joseph and Pharaoh’s Dream,” an episode of CBN Animation’s Superbook. The story of Joseph—betrayed by his own brothers yet choosing forgiveness—deeply touched her heart. It made her pause and reconsider how she should respond to her classmates’ behavior. Sharoon shared,

“I saw how Joseph was hurt by his own brothers, yet he still chose to forgive. If Joseph could forgive, I want to learn to forgive too. Because when I forgive, my heart feels more peaceful.”

From that day forward, Sharoon began to pray every night, asking God to help her forgive and not hold hatred toward those who hurt her. At school, she took a brave step—greeting her classmates first, even when they ignored her. Slowly, things began to change. Her kindness opened doors to new friendships, and she started to experience peace and joy in her heart.
