Forgiving Is For Giving! Poem by Denis Martindale

Man's greatest gift of all to give... comes from both heart and mind,
It's shared while God lets each one live... before life's left behind...
For some, forgiveness hurts like Hell... till Heaven's light can shine,
For some, forgiveness flows quite well... as if love flows like wine...

Yet God forgives through Jesus Christ... the debts for sins are paid...
Consider what was sacrificed... upon that cross displayed...
For there it was... upon Christ's cross... that Jesus still forgave...
And Jesus prayed like that because... He was that strong and brave...

And that takes time, forgiving crime... forgiving one and all...
Yes, that takes love... divine... sublime... it takes a miracle...
So pray for strength... and then receive... by faith what God must send...
For faith is there so we believe... before we comprehend...

Faith sees the future Heaven shares... Faith holds back on the hate...
Faith knows that God will answer prayers... that's why saints celebrate...
Yes, forgiving is for giving... like prayer, it changes things...
And more so, if we are living... to serve the King of Kings!
