Forgiving Heart

Even if we believe,
nothing can be done to
fully transform our hearts
without first forgiving
others, for only then will God
truly forgive us, from His heart,
our trespasses, then free our hearts to give
and receive as His heart yearns for us to do.
Forgiveness is the key needed to open up
our heart door, for all else to follow
in the fullness we are to know.
Until we make this life choice,
we are soul-bound, and kept
from truly knowing God's
healing peace, rest, joy,
and divine motivation
needed to fullfill our life purpose.
Only the Holy Ghost, in us, can help us
to forgive them, as Jesus first forgave us.
