I've not been very good in my life at memorizing things, but then there are those times when the Lord just writes something on my heart and it stick. Whenever I hear a poem, it seems that I am always reminded of a poem I read about 20 years ago and it so stuck in my heart and mind that I still remember it word for word today. It goes like this.
If I say I forgive but I cannot forget, it's as though the God who washes all the sands, on all the shores, in all the world each day, cannot wash these memories from my mind, then I know nothing of charity love.
Today as I learn to love God and love others well, that poem means more to me than I ever thought it could.
