If He Could Forgive

Something we never remember
in that moment of anger
when someone does us wrong
no matter how slight or great

Forgetting, or failing to remember,
the way of the Lord
our creator come to earth
to walk the streets of dust

On the cross, in shame and ridicule,
as he was dying for us
even then he forgave
while we are yet bound to sin

Needing to remember
if he could forgive even then
how we should be merciful, generous
when our neighbor commits a sin

Prayer of Dedication:
“Abundant God, we thank you for the jars of our lives
that are constantly being filled. We offer our gifts to you,
that others may know of your abundance and grace.
Fill the hungry with good things. Lift up the oppressed.
Watch over the stranger and comfort the lonely.
Through our gifts, may we do likewise.
In the name of Christ the Comforter, we pray. Amen”
