Truly Forgive
Forgiveness is not for them but for you.
Forgive what they say out of anger.
Forgive those who act out of hate.
Forgive whoever hurt you.
Let go of the grudges you have against people
Let go of the hurt people caused
Let go of the anger you have towards them
Allow yourself to give them a new slate
Allow yourself to forget how they did you wrong
Allow yourself to finally gain peace
Allow yourself to truly forgive
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Forgive Yourself
You deserve forgiveness from yourself
You deserve to not be hard on yourself
You deserve to free yourself
You will make mistakes and that's okay
So please forgive yourself
You will have flaws and that's okay
So please forgive yourself
You will have regrets and that's okay
So please forgive yourself

Reflection questions:
Why worry about past sins that God has already forgiven you for? What are some sins you need to to forgive yourself for?
What is something you need to forgive someone else for? Can you finally cancel their wrongdoing and let them start off with a clean slate?

Such an important message and very uplifting to read ❤️🙏🏻
Beautiful scripture based poems! Thank you so much for sharing them, Emily!
This is super sweet and uplifting! The poems make forgiveness feel easy and relatable, like a little nudge to let go of grudges and move on with peace.💖
Forgive! ❤️ Great poem, God bless
1. Why worry about past sins that God has already forgiven you for? How can we be so sure God has already forgiven us? Does he forgive all sins? Could I kill someone and not worry about it because God has already forgiven me? 2. What are some sins you need to to forgive yourself for? There's a lot and it still eats me up from inside 3. What is something you need to forgive someone else for? This also has a lottttt 4. Can you finally cancel their wrongdoing and let them start off with a clean slate? Nope, no way in hell
Forgiveness is a hard road to go down. But one needs to find it in something bigger than themselves. wise words dear Emily.
Amazing poem!
Great spiritual poem - Well done Emily.
