I Will Do the Same

I want to write a poem about forgiveness
Does God always forgive you?
The answer is yes
A thousand times
Ten thousand times 
Is that in the Bible?
Let's see now
Did God say "I will forgive you"?
Matthew 6:15 "But if you do not forgive others their trespasses, 
neither will your Father forgive your trespasses"
Can anyone do something that you think it's unforgivable?
Yes but that is what you think
That is not what God thinks
Anything is forgivable
But that doesn't mean you continue doing it
James 4:17 "Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, 
and doeth (it) not,
to him it is sin"
It's too much already
I will always be in sins
But that's the beauty of it
God will always forgive you
Just like you will always forgive your brothers
Are you?
But....does that please God
continuing forgiving you for the same mistake that you did?
I can never please God
And you too either
So don't even try
He is pleased whenever and however
For no reason
Not by your doing
By what He is doing
And He may work on you
The way you are acting
You hear?
This is for me lol

TH, What you give out are those things you receive in return. If you see flies flying around it and you start handing it out, you may receive the same in return. Have you noticed lately? jth
