Forgiveness

Forgiveness. 
What a simple thing to talk about, especially when it’s about others who need to forgive. Very theological, you know speaking on forgiveness. But when it comes calling on your door, when bitterness of heart has lived there far too long, when it’s that person, sometimes it’s a different story. Oh, how much I need to forgive, to let go and let freedom give wing. And all the more I reflect on how I need forgiveness, for my awful thoughts, my piercing tongue, my hard heart. Let it come easy, let it wash down on me and clear away all the grime and saturate my soul. Forgiven so that I may forgive. Free to free others. Clean to share this purity.

Help me Father, do as You have done for me.
