Forgiving And Forgetting
Forgiveness and forgetting,
are not joined at the hip.
We can still love the person,
but not forget their lip.
I thank God each day,
for my many second chances.
When He forgave He forgot,
with no backward glances.
It is comforting to know,
that God remembers no more.
My previous shortcomings,
before opening my heart’s door.
It’s quick and easy to say forgive,
with hope’s we didn’t sever.
A treasured friendship,
while forget remains forever.
