More on Forgiveness: A Miracle We Can Give to Anyone Anytime and Always Should

 

Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.

-Ephesians 4:32 

I remembered this song Forgiveness from Matthew West after I did the last post and thought I would add it now with the song and words. It really is beautiful and goes with the theme of the last post and wanted to share it with you all. It was popular a few years ago, but I still hear it from time to time and really love it. Here are some of the words:

"It's the hardest thing to give away

And the last thing on your mind today

It always goes to those who don't deserve

It's the opposite of how you feel

When they pain they caused is just too real

Takes everything you have to say the word

Forgiveness, forgiveness

It flies in the face of all your pride

It moves away the mad inside

It's always anger's own worst enemy

Even when the jury and the judge

Say you've got a right to hold a grudge

It's the whisper in your ear saying set it free

Forgiveness..."

I hope you enjoy it. He has some really good songs. I listen to KLove or WayFM a lot and they play so many wonderful songs. Forgiveness is hard to do sometimes, but I think it is true, when you can forgive, not hold grudges, and put things in the past, not be vengeful, and truly forgive you a less a prisoner and are free. We have to learn to take the high road and know as humans we all error and we also have to learn to forgive each other. One of the hardest, but most beautiful things we can do, a real miracle. Enjoy!
