Come to the Waters with Compassion


Receiving an invitation from the Holy Trinity,
During my childhood I developed an affinity.
I know I welcomed this communication.
From the Holy Trinity, receiving an invitation.

I learned of divine love from our Maker, 
How important to be a giver not a taker.
Blessings bestowed from our Lord above,
From our Maker, I learned of divine love.

Forgiving is one aspect of compassion.
To me the hardest to accept and fashion.
A compassionate heart brings beauty to living.
One aspect of compassion is forgiving.

So I forgive, it doesn't say it's OK,
Now my inner peace will stay that way.
I am convinced it's the right way to live.
It doesn't say it's OK, so I forgive.

Helping others, care with empathy.
Offering encouragement, not just sympathy.
Letting them know when needed I'll be there,
With empathy, helping others with care.

Nice spiritual poem. Like the last stanza, that should be everyone's life goal.
