My wife and I visited someones house we never thought we'd ever enter peacefully, stayed there for two days and left peacefully. For years these people were on our chit list. I sound like a preacher on this one, got a problem with that?


Poem Artwork

Jesus used love
he could have prayed to God
to give us the shove
Instead he asked God
to forgive us because we
did not know what we do

Man still doesn't know what
he is doing until this day
We aren't God's blessed
some of us are devil dressed
All we know how to do
is evily express
I for one do confess
but every day I work on my redress

Praying and asking for fogiveness
If we can't forgive our fellow man
How do we expect God to
forgive us
Here's what I found out
The more I understand and
forgive others
the better I feel myself
The more I forgive myself
the lighter my burden

I feel more at peace
disconnected from the devils lease
No more revenge thinking
which will have the eyes blinking
Those I wanted to smack
I gave up the stupid attack
I have no more worries of
the returning flack
the boomerang does fly back

Looking for inner peace
try forgiveness

Hi OPG, A boomerang is right... this sounds like that old adage, "what goes around comes around" and Karma, if I can say that. If there should ever be disconnection, it should be of evils ways... thank you for sharing this, OPG... stay strong,

In Spirit,
Bear
