Then, one gleaming moment.....a miracle occured......

FORGIVEN I spent my life in turmoil Futile justification Vain attempts to validate My wretched sinful nature Then One gleaming moment A miracle occurred Lightning bolt of mercy Precious saving grace Forgiven In majestic form Burning bush split second Embraced by Jesus Christ Unconditional love His radiance Immaculate Glowing peace Profound Today I share this blessing With all who cross my path Selah 10 "Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth." Psalm 46:10 (New International Version) New International Version (NIV) Copyright � 1973, 1978, 1984 by International Bible Society � Bill Grimes Jr. 2007

A beautiful write my friend, a message of hope and encouragement, we should share our hope and faith with others, help them to realize what joy is awaiting, and the cleansing miracles that can happen within one when they are truly forgiven. Outstanding write indeed!
Blessings,

Bill, this is such a beautiful expression of God's love for mankind...regardless of our mistakes, HE wraps HIS mighty arms around us and forgives everything wrong we've ever done. Through HIM all things are possible and I feel blessed to have read this. Thanks for sharing such an inspirational poem.

Breathtakingly beautiful in its simplicity and truth.
The Selah is perfect, and if I understand it correctly, it is a pause, not an ending. That makes it so right for this poem, because your state of being "forgiven" does not end here -- your life will continue to glorify God.

God bless you, Brother
