FORGIVENESS- WHAT IT IS
by Nicole Weaver

Rated "G" by the Author.

When you have been wronged, it is very difficult to forgive. To not forgive gives the other person complete control over you.


The easy thing for me to do is to react...
                eye for an eye
                          No...
                 I will forgive...
                    because...
doing so will set my soul free
from the bondage of hatred and revenge
                           yet...
do not confuse forgiveness  dor 
                     weakness...
it is better to let go and let God
new doors will be opened...
I shall walk through them
how sweet it is to proclaim
my freedom from  the enslavement of
     your narrow thinking
                 victory
   can only be claimed
               when...
 we free the mind of the onslaught of
 malicious thoughts
                that...
can easily take over our being 
                like...
an uncurable cancer
forgiveness is not easy
but it is the best remedy
for mending  a heart who has been
          torn to peices
let the healing process
bring to full harmony
the joyous melodies
that once was sung from
this  mended  and reconstructed   heart!

Reviewed by Dimetrous Nixon 9/27/2009
There you go. When you don't forgive, you are absoluetly correct. It gives the wrongful enemy the power to control you. They are in your daily thoughts, and all of your focus revolves around them, and they've got you just where they want you. Remember that vicious person is always jealous, and spends all of their time trying to make you look small so they can look tall. I call them haters. My three ways of dealing with them are:
1. You know who you are, and know who the true friends really are.
2.You have a purpose in life.
3.Lastly remember what you have is by DIVINE NATURE, not human manipulation, and remember when God gives you favor, you can tell your haters, "Don't look at me.....Look at who is in charge of me".
