Praying for Me

Praying that God
would forgive me
that his words
would have full weight
for I know not what I do
the damage my sin has done

Not wanting to be aware
blind to the pain
I have caused
hoping the words of Christ
his act of sacrifice on the cross
would wash away my stain


Luke 23:34
Luke 23:32-34
and
Day 188, “The Word of Forgiveness”, in
“Daily Mediations: On Golden Texts of the Bible”,
