Forgiveness is Poem

Postby VictoryInJesus » Sat May 09, 2020 7:55 pm

Forgiveness is !
Forgiveness is not saying that the accuser is right
It's saying, your not letting their words and actions take light
Forgiveness is not showing that your weak
It's saying, your letting Christ teach us how to be meek
Forgiveness is not just empty idle words that we say
It's actively acting on Christ's commandment to obey
Forgiveness is not just as simple as the forgive and forget saying
It's taking your burden to God; even when it is breaking
Forgiveness is not just letting hurt emotions fester us inside
It's showing God's love in us does abide
Forgiveness is not to get revenge or to act spiteful
It's saying, with the Holy Spirits help, we can be more fruitful
Forgiveness is not only just setting yourself free of the hurt and pain
It's saying, I'm gonna remember, how Jesus freed us, so we can attain,
His free gift of salvation, forgiveness of sins, and a home up above
Because of His unfailing love
Jesus forgives us every time we go to Him in earnest prayer
So next time you're offended or hurt, don't hang your head in despair
take it to the foot of the cross and nail it there
He can give you life eternal, hope and love, and unsurpassing peace
When you forgive and move on, our wounds He can release
Forgiveness is giving God the power to avenge instead
Then, go ahead, forgive, yes, go ahead
Forgiveness isn't something that we need to dread
it brings us to a closer walk, to feast on the Living Bread
And it cleanses and restores our relationships again
Maybe not exactly how it may have been
But it's important for us to make amends
So you can keep making good Christian friends
Sometimes its not possible to forgive face to face
but when we bring it to God, He fills us with His grace
So let's refuse to bring up old past offenses
and pray and let God make those recompenses
Forgiveness is not just about US.....
Forgiveness....it's Freedom IN CHRIST JESUS!

to another, tenderhearted,
forgiving one
another, even as God for Christs sake
hath forgiven you.
