Forgiveness Extended to Others Series

by Marijo Phelps⁽¹⁹⁹⁾ Red Star

Accuser

My heart aches

When communion is torn

This sheep feels shorn

In wintry bluster

The enemy gloats

As relations miss

While demons hiss

Closeness ripped

Who is the accuser?

Destroyer by name

Serving up shame

To heartbroken ones

BUT JESUS.

My champion bold

My heart He holds

Knowing my thoughts

I trust in Him

To set things right

By His might

His peace flows

Evidence not seen

He knows my heart

Patience, my part

I rest in Him.

Forgiving

There is something I need to say to you

And I say it with all my heart

Even though you didn’t ask

I feel it plays a part…..

I know from experience

How these words can set one free

Because I’ve had these three little words

Given as a gift to me…..

So I hand them off to you

With my very open hand

The words “I forgive you”

Are given without demand…..

Sisters somehow scrap and fight

Over the strangest little thing

All of that is over and gone

When the words of forgiveness ring.

Love these, they reach into the heart and speak volumes in so few words. My world will be richer because of all your poetry. Praise God. Teresa
