GRACE TO FORGIVE

I can't believe what she/he said!

I can't believe what they did!

Don't they know its wrong.

How could they treat me like this!

I feel like I missed the clue!

Its like a dagger is tearing through my chest.

The choices are laid before me!

Love or hate?

It doesn't feel right to just turn a blind eye at what they did

But I realized its my pain

And I have to deal with it.

70X7 times you said.

But its not much of a deal

When I think of all that you have done.

I now realize that I have to take offense because I will be offended.

Love or hate?

The choices are laid before me.

Even if I choose hate, it won't change their hearts.

But my pride won't let me lay me weapons of warfare on the ground.

I build bridges only to tear them down.

Most times I think the pain would go away

When I get the apologies I crave.

Truth be told,it doesn't matter if they are sorry or not.

Freedom comes only when I surrender to the sound of your mercy and grace.

Heb 10:17 their sin and lawless acts I will remember no more.

Father help me forgive them
They don't know what they've been doing.

Even when I feel like I am the one losing.

Grace to forgive and forget is all I ask.

Because I have the life of christ in me.

I don't want to act like an elephant who doesn't forget.

Because you forgive and forget.


I choose to do the same.

I choose to love.

I choose to forget just like my father does.

Grace to forgive.

Grace to forget, that's all I ask.



Love Suzanne.
