Forgiven

As I sat down to talk to you...

The sweetest peace seemed to surround my soul...

I told all of my fears, my pain and mistakes...

But you never said a word...

I was so puzzled by the look of love on your face, no condemnation was in your eyes...

I asked you, do you remember when I had done this, your reply astounded me...

With a voice of grace, you softly spoke as if I finally heard you for the first time...

You said:

I remember when I breathed you into your mothers womb,
I remember the first cry you made, I remember the first time you skinned your knee, the first day you went to school...
I remember your first heart break as mine broke for you...
I remember when your mother came to be with me, and how you didn't understand, you wanted to run and hide, but I kept you safe from the violent man...
I remember when you told me you hated me for the pain you felt and you wanted to die... You was so torn and damaged but I saw the beauty that you are inside...
And now you ask if I remember your sins, my answer is;
I don't remember what's been forgiven!!!


I fell to my knees in tears like rain, how could such love look past all I had become?

How could he not remember all my shame, my hate and pain?

And again he whispered ....

I can't remember what's been forgiven!
