Psalm (to forgive) 94

Teach me to forgive, Lord;
~~teach me to give as before.

I was an innocent injured, offended, orphaned;
~~I was abandoned to wander the hungry mouth of night.

In the belly of pain, I was fit with anger;
~~in desire's dark gut, my force was seized with war and prayer.

Seeking comfort aside from the Comforter, I was shaken: forgive me;
~~following power outside the Almighty, I was broken: teach me to be pure.

That I may give as You give, Lord,
~~lead me to myself once more.

Incredible imagery of somebody who was unfairly wronged. Fits in with many topics we have discussed. The hope of faith shines through as the Comforter is sought. I like it. Love, Nona
