forgiveness . . . unforgiveness

Choosing to forgive
With the help of God
Frees us from the other
Helps us to move on

Unforgiveness traps us
Keeps our heart all tied up
With the one who caused us pain
Freedom seems elusive
Revenge our only choice
But when will it be enough
That the other person pays?
Will it ever satisfy?
Or will we long for more?

Maybe God does have it right
The only way to freedom
The only way to peace
Forgiveness from our hearts
Cancelling the debt
Letting go of anger
Giving Him our hurt
Seeking reconciliation
Moving on with love

Choosing to forgive
With the help of God
Frees us from the other
Helps us to move on
