~~~ I walk toward forgiveness a mountain steep and high the cold wind catches my breath as I hike toward the sky how can I endure this pain these perpetrators wrought? don't they know how much they hurt me the suffering they brought? why did GOD allow it? why didn't HE step in? why did He let them wound me so? *why did He let them win?* as I search for a foothold in a rough and rugged climb I search for the answers I ask for a sign "look back at the trailhead" is what the Lord replied I saw there a rugged cross where He bled and died "I suffered persecution. is it too hard for you to understand my loving grace *should cover those folks too?* "while you hold your hatred even though you have the grounds you keep them shackled to you in you they are bound! "I know it's difficult, my child for very hurt you've been but I can't forgive you, Cathy *UNTIL YOU FORGIVE THEM* so i made a list of people forgave and checked them off one by one the devils strongholds of hatred were broken off! and so i made my way sometimes the path was hard but i did stop to take breathers resting in the Lord stange as this may seem to you as I neared the top the frigid wind buffeting me seemed to lessen - STOP! when I stood upon the summit it was a gentle breeze! there were flowers everywhere! it was 80 degrees! I'd never seen such beauty! as though a flag unfurled I stood there on that mountaintop saw the entire world! the happiness flowed through me I did, finally, forgive all those who had hurt me I could finally LIVE SoulSurvivor (C) 1/25/2016
