God is compassionate<\/p>\n
Eager to forgive<\/p>\n
Eager to forget<\/p>\n
Of God\u2019s forgiveness, we are sure<\/p>\n
So, we ask.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
And then there is us, flawed<\/p>\n
Holding back in forgiving ourselves<\/p>\n
Unwilling to let the past go<\/p>\n
Unable to heal.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Too harsh with our thoughts, daily<\/p>\n
Confident that if time could turn back<\/p>\n
An error-free life would be ours<\/p>\n
Forgetful our kind is born of errors<\/p>\n
Empowered just for change<\/p>\n
Today and tomorrow.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
We should give ourselves forgiveness<\/p>\n
The kind we seek from God<\/p>\n
Allow ourselves redemption<\/p>\n
Allow freedom<\/p>\n
Allow forgetfulness.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
It\u2019s okay<\/p>\n
I stumbled<\/p>\n
I learned<\/p>\n
I forgive myself<\/p>\n
I let go<\/p>\n
I forget<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
