"Teach me Your ways so I may know You..."
Exodus 33:13 NIV

What a concerned Papa God You are and how You love us so...
Reaching out to provide and protect, You show us how to grow.
Despite wounded hearts, You ask us to forgive repeatedly...
Wisely knowing if we harbor resentment, we'll never be free.
For each time we fail to forgive it's to the Devil's gain...
Allowing him to stir the pot with bitterness and pain.
Yet; if we'd stop and pray for loving eyes to see...
A lost and wayward child in need of clemency,
How much easier to extend God's Gift of Grace...
And oh what joy to put the Devil in his place.
Then while sincerely forgiving others, we'd succeed...
In glorifying God through that loving act and deed!
For when there's reconciliation, the Devil will fail...
Conquered through compassion, allowing Christ's Love to prevail!
So ask God to help you forgive - as He has forgiven you...
Then feel the healing power - of true forgiveness when you do.
"Love isn't selfish or quick tempered. It doesn't keep
a record of wrongs that others do. Love is always supportive,
loyal, hopeful, and trusting. Love never fails!"
1 Corinthians 13:5, 7, 8 CEV
