Ash Wednesday

Finally went to church today-Ash Wednesday I went for company, communion and to pray Liked the new people, what priest had to say I really felt like I was forgiven for sins today It used to be only God, hard to get Jesus into My life and prayers, now it's bound like sinew For money owed, no longer feel a need to sue All's forgiven. Still talk to Bruce and sister Sue Everytime attend church, learn something new Everyday I pray alone, today was I born anew I will go again, really enjoyed myself, the brew Was wine in a silver cup with bread pieces new Dipped into the wine and eaten with the others Fellowship in God's love with sisters & brothers Told female priest - many fathers and mothers Baptized/confirmed Episcopalian and my mother Sang in her Episcopal church, so sweet a voice Larry dropped me off/picked me up, his choice No singing, just prayer and sermon - REJOICE When Jesus so returns - Will I hear his voice? As I do every night, I will pray for redemption I believe it will be later in the souls convention I will see my beloved brother, parents, baby I will go to Heaven all around us, just maybe

June, first stanza last line....A clue "I really felt like sins forgiven today" this is your assurance. They have thrown as far as the east is from the west never to be remembered again. Keep the creative pen flowing. Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my work. Sara
