Forgiveness

I will wander

until I find my rhythm.

I am struggling with the idea of forgiveness.

Since I do not feel that I am the one to judge,

then how is it my place to offer forgiveness?

Am I really the one who grants forgiveness?

Do we not take our troubles to Christ to ask 

Forgiveness?

I know forgiving is not forgetting.

Forgiveness does not happen all at once;

It is a daily process until the thought of the transgression

no longer stirs negative emotion inside.

I keep telling myself these things,

and know Christ forgives,

but I don't feel good that I can't let go.

It's not about me...it's about turning it over to Him!

I started by telling you I am struggling;

well, I am determined to let go 

leave it to Him!

Seek, and you will find

It's December 17, 2012

I am searching for answers.

I know where to find them, but sometimes they're hard to hear.

The hustle and bustle of daily life gets in the way;

Now the holidays are upon us and this complicates things more.

The tragedy of the loss of the lives of the precious children,

and their teachers,

at Sandy Hook

makes this time almost unbearable.

These are the times to find the quiet;

listen to hear what God is telling us.

He is ever present

offering comfort.

Trust in Him.

He knows what these parents and families 

are going through.

Every life has a purpose and it is up to us to 

use the gifts He has given to us.

Be kind and compassionate and forgiving.

Listen to the stillness of your heart

and you will find the answers.

Genesis

It's the middle of the night

 I'm feeling the time quite right

to venture forward

into waters unknown.

Be patient

it takes time for all good things to grow

I will do my best 

to provide you well

in this my test.
