Do you harbor any resentment?
Can you think of someone you hate?
Is there someone, or something,
that makes your skin boil?
Is there something which you can relate?
Is there wrong in your life you’ve not righted?
Is your anger more frequent than naught?
Have you heard of the story,
of Jesus, the Lord?
Do you know of the lessons he taught?
Are you skilled at the trait of forgiving?
Is it something, that you never have tried?
Are your feelings producing,
one positive thing?
Are they feelings you show or you hide?
For most their resentment’s an anchor.
That binds them throughout their whole life.
Affecting the ones
they most cherish and love.
Their children! Their Husband or wife!
Is it something you’re taking for granted?
Not really aware of your crime?
Is it something you thought,
that would someday be gone,
If you only would give it some time?
Just think, that, if no-one forgave you,
For all of your devious deeds.
The feelings you’d have,
and the constant rejection.
Are you seeing where all of this leads?
Christ died on a Cross to redeem us,
For all of our sin, he forgave.
Don’t you feel a bit foolish
and selfish these days,
Looking back on how you did behave?
It’s time to let go of your anger.
It’s time to repent and forgive.
A life free of hostile
thinking and actions,
Is how Christ had planned you should live!
