Forgiveness

Forgiveness...

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’

That's the beautiful, painful reality.  It's truer than I'd like to admit, sometimes.

Because sometimes I've just got to let go.  And I usually don't want to.   I'd rather let my anger and disappointment grow.  But, the truth is -- bitterness is like drinking poison, and expecting it to kill someone else.

  1. I agree! Bitterness has deep roots. Once it has been left to grow, only God can help unroot it.

    1. Exactly. Bitterness is a powerful tool of Satan. It distances us from God and those we love.
