People Do Change

When backslidden Christians repent and are back firmly in the fold, some believers rejoice with them, while doubters cast looks haughty and cold. God, please remind them that anyone, through YOU, can break evil's hold. posted May 27, 2018 revised June 6, 2018, and entered in Silent One's When Three Lines Are So Much Better Contest

A very nicely penned religious sijo, Janice. I sure am enjoying the sijo I am seeing around here today.

Thanks so much, Andrea. When I tried to be more creative, I ended up with too many syllables and, therefore, NOT a sijo! Janice

Thanks so much, Honestly! When I feel judgmental thoughts rising in me, I remind myself that I don't want to be remembered for MY worst actions and words. Have a great Memorial Day. Janice
