Forgiveness Ignites Resplendence

vengeance
drowns beauty
steals  hope
casts minds and hearts
deeper into
murky sinuous aimless paths
helplessly trapped in
anger's icy piercing grip 
forgiveness
ignites resplendence
restores holy embraces
and dancing hearts
releases hearts and minds
 clearing the glorious way
towards Heaven
with freedom
 to celebrate 
the joy of Christ's Infinite Love

 
 "See that none render evil for evil to any man.
But ever follow that which is good 
towards each other and towards all men.
Always rejoice. Pray without ceasing.
In all things give thanks, 
for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus
concerning you all"
1 Thessalonians 5:15-18
Douay Rheims Roman Catholic Bible
