Unsettled Vitality

The betrayal offences rendered on us daily unsettles swiftly progress.

They simmer and stir and spread.

Resentment, unforgiveness lead us to revenge.

Bitterness spreads so contagiously like a disease.

Infests and infecting all within reach.

God’s guidance keep my emotions in check.

Clear my heart of all distress.

As I mediate on your love and goodness

As feelings seem to resurface.

I seek your forgiveness,

You so graciously give.

Living with compassion and easily forgiving

is a commitment we must make.
