Loving ForgivenessEphesians 4:32 Be kind to each other and tenderhearted, Not letting your compassion be departed; Forgiving one another through eternity, Just as God in Christ forgave you and me; Forgiveness is actually the same as love, For it is a type of compassion thereof; Forgiving another is showing you care, From a mistake that is causing despair; You're willing and able to bury the hatchet, Even if their behavior wasn't appropriate; You can love another even if not deserving, For the same reason why God is forgiving; God loved us even when He had no reason, That is why He sacrificed His only son; He loved and cared so much for humanity, Showing compassion in a different capacity; Forgiveness is a miracle only God performs, Canceling the sinful debt that transforms; We live here today without fear or guilt, A sacrificial lamb whose blood was spilt.
