"If we really want to love we must learn how to forgive."
~Mother Teresa
~Mother Teresa
Sometimes when words are hard to find and pain is burning bright it is best to ask God to bless you with the words of others to help you express what you feel. After a long hard cry, a lot of soul searching and prayer this morning my Beloved God guided me to this song. I will post both the lyrics and the music video below. Thank you God for knowing exactly what my heart was struggling with. I do not want to be quick to anger, even when confronted by angry people, instead I want to have a heart that easily forgives. I want to be blessed with the ability to be a blessing, even to those that choose hurt me.
Today I choose forgiveness, I hope you will choose it too
Be kind to one
another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other,
just as God in Christ also has forgiven you. ~Ephesians 4:32
just as God in Christ also has forgiven you. ~Ephesians 4:32
It's the hardest thing to give away
And the last thing on your
mind today
It always goes to those
that don't deserve
It's the opposite of how
you feel
When the pain they caused
is just to real
It takes everything you
have just to say the word...
Forgiveness
Forgiveness
It flies in the face of
all your pride
It moves away the mad
inside
It's always anger's own
worst enemy
Even when the jury and the
judge
Say you gotta right to
hold a grudge
It's the whisper in your
ear saying 'Set It Free'
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
Show me how to love the
unlovable
Show me how to reach the
unreachable
Help me now to do the
impossible
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
Help me now to do the
impossible
Forgiveness
It'll clear the bitterness
away
It can even set a prisoner
free
There is no end to what
it's power can do
So, let it go and be
amazed
By what you see through
eyes of grace
The prisoner that it
really frees is you
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
Show me how to love the
unlovable
Show me how to reach the
unreachable
Help me now to do the
impossible
Forgiveness
I want to finally set it
free
So show me how to see what
Your mercy sees
Help me now to give what
You gave to me
Forgiveness, Forgiveness
