Offences Solution
It’s a serious thing to not forgive...
from your heart,
which will produce action;
Since Jesus payment did that for you;
where then is The Cross’ satisfaction?
Have I been offended?
Yes; Many times;
But, I can’t just change my heart.
I can and I did when I paid for you;
Don’t you think that it’s time that you start...
allowing My Love to become
so much greater
and gain that brother for me?
How many times, then must I forgive
such obvious travesty?
You won’t suffer the wrong;
You have a limit;
I didn’t with you,
so you must forgive it.
Don’t let the truths
I’ve revealed to you,
make you high-minded
in all that you do.
If your choice could be rather,
to suffer the wrong,
(exactly what I did for you)
your power to believe
would swing open all doors
so My treasury will flow unto you.
Alright! I’ll for give it!
Are those just words?
Did you follow My plan,
that I know you have heard?
Did you go to the brother
that offended you;
follow My instructions
that I wrote to do?
And, if he won’t hear you,
take another...
All for the purpose
of gaining your brother?
Where do you think
Satan’s great bonfire
gets the wood
to keep feeding the flame?
Why do you think
these offences keep raging?
Yet, you say
you are not to blame.
My simple instruction
would put out the fire;
In the process, your heart
will be changed;
Instead, your body
is greatly re-acting and it’s you
that is suffering the pain.
Are these the steps, Lord,
that I didn’t apply,
thinking instead
that I could deny...
the wise things you wrote
so that I’d be protected;
Yet, being afraid
it would be detected
that I have refused
to do what You say’
Thinking I have
a much better way.
Well, you know what? I don’t!
Please help me today
not put logs on the fire
and do ‘how’ You say.
If a statement is made,
or even an action,
that’s offensive to me
and I want satisfaction;
What if, instead,
I addressed the issue
alone, with the one that offended?
Would this put out the fire
before it got raging?
Would, in fact, this strife
now be ended?
Reading in Matthew, Chapter Eighteen,
Your plan becomes clear to me;
Thank-you, Father;
You’ve provided a way
to stop Satan’s tragedy.
And, not only that,
much more than I asked;
More than even I thought;
In the process of walking
the ‘how’ of instruction,
I know I just proved
I’ve been bought.
Is this a rule and regulation,
I hear Satan scream in my ear.
No! A perfect law of liberty
that’s giving him much to fear!
Cutting the chains
to The Winged White Horse,
I’m thinking, is very great pleasure;
That horse is me; that horse is you;
Ready for the flight of our treasure!!! December 27th, 2005
