Broken Relationships (Forgiving & Reconciling)

Yet our forgiveness, depends not
If hurt and pain, if we’re grieved
Nor our feelings, their responses
If apologies, are received.

How do you treat others
As a giver, or taker?
To unburden your load
Or to share, God’s favors?

Love bears and believes
Love hopes all things
Shows patience and grace
Seeks clear understanding.

For our child learns to walk
In our footsteps each day
Let us follow the Master
Lest they learn other ways.

Yesterday’s gone
And tomorrow’s unknown
We have, just today
To invest, wisely own.

So, through seasons of life
As God leads to the next
Do trust and obey Him
Daily, enter His rest.

So, do drink your cup
Trust God, and obey
He is with you, midst sufferings
Know He’s present, always.

Yet, He bids us to follow
We must take up, our cross
Abide in Him daily
Count all things as loss.

Take time, to smell the roses
Listen to a hurting soul
Hold a hand, speak a kindness
Help restore, a sinner whole.

So, we lift every hurt
Release all, to Him
Now laid upon Christ
Walk in grace, not sin.
