Modern Marriage

Seems marriage today
Lacks God at the center
Now, it’s all about ‘me’
With no plan, to surrender.

So, serve one another
And think of their best
Forgive, when they fail you
And try not to test.

Jesus taught us to love
Not just neighbors, but foes
Yes, to love our enemies
If even cursing…bless those.

So, keep short accounts
Don’t let wounds fester
Learn to quickly forgive
Show love, and live better.

Know hurts to our heart
Must be forgiven
Our pain, and revenge
We’re in our own ‘prison’.

And if God so loves each
Forgives, offers salvation
Should we too, not love
Offer others, reconciliation?

So, let us turn and learn
Forgiveness and grace
As Christ, forgives us
Choose His love, to replace.

Forgiveness depends
Not on the offender
They may have done wrong
Jesus tells us, be a forgiver.

While Jesus, showed love
Forgiveness, not hate
Building bridges, not walls
To unite, not separate.

For hearts have so hardened
Forgiveness, forgotten
Love, is so lacking
God’s truths, downtrodden.
