Help me to soften my #heart #poetry #God #confess #repent #forgive

Help me, Lord, today
to soften my heart fully…
Help me to forgive, completely,
all those who sinned against me…
 
I don’t want the chains lifted
the feelings that I carry…
I want to walk in the light
to love in the way of Jesus…
 
Help me, Lord, today
to be Your faithful…
Forgive me, Lord, I pray
as I forgive others…
