Forgiveness

FORGIVENESS


forgiveness doesn't start with the person it starts with you
to satify the anger i  have inside i fuel it with  thoughts that's consume me 
and are replayed in my mind everytime i think of you and what you did 
 and as the page turn in this endless story of betrayl and deceit 
that anger which is now hatred has tooken over me. 
the evil thoughts that run though my head i often wish 
was a reality. 
so much pain that fills the hurt you cause me. leads me just wanting you dead.
 forgiveness i heard it and wondered how 
forgiveness not when my world was turned upside down 
forgiveness for all that he had done why! 
forgive because his sins aren't the only one. Forgive our debts as we forgive or debtors. bless them that persecute you: bless, and curse not the good word says
 i remember how i wasn't always saved and how God had alot to work with to get me to this place. 
and how all my sins were washed away never again to see the light of day. 
and when he thinks of me it brings a smile to his face no respect or person they always say. 
so by which all was forgiven i must do the same 
so that i can be at peace and declare  the Lords Holy name
Through his love I have learn that I have to let it go 
and not hold on to things that will consume my soul
so that i can loose the chains that are trying to take hold of me Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good so release of your debts i will forgive
I forgive you!
