Colossians 3:12-14\
(Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.)
Don't Hold On To A Grudge
Arguments and disagreements can lead to grudges,
That leave hurts, that seem to be unrepairable
Yet God calls for us to have a compassionate heart
With love applied we can make compassion a work of art
Grudges left unattended, will cause a rift in the road
Causing a lots of rough rides along the way
God says be kind, love your enemy, and forgive a soul
When we do this our way grows smother and we become more whole
So in order to bring resolution, one must become humble and meek
Setting the example for others that may be sickly and weak
Growing in patients and excepting the one causing you grief
Find forgiveness and then dig real deep finding relief
Family and friends are important in life, relationships a must
So forgive as the Lord has forgiven you, letting the past go
And make the best of the future, building on the good
Our relationships won’t drift, and we will be more understood
When one is not feeling good, because of holding a grudge
In fact one is really sick and tired of the whole thing
Just remember, don't go to the Dr. or call a nurse
Because a grudge is one thing that doesn’t get better when it’s nursed.
Have a good day, and save a relationship by swallowing your pride and forgiving a brother/sister. Be humble and walk with God in LOVE
