See what turns a man’s head and know how he’s steering his heart.
What is Lovely, to you?
Lovely… a forgiver. (Matthew 5:7)
It’s not what you’ve been given, it’s what you do with what you’ve got.
Did you know the power to grant eternal pardons lives in you?
I know, crazy. Bunch of folks got really mad about that, couple thousand years ago.
(Mad is just a muscled bodyguard for Fear.)
“It makes sense…” Lovely will say.
“Acknowledging your power, it can be scary, it’s responsibility.”
And Fear rather prefers rules, not responsibility.
Completely given. That’s what “forgiving” means.
Forgiveness gives me new life completely, every morning.
And so does she.
Lovely… a lover of the One who Loves.
(who’s this Lovely? you’d better start at the beginning…)
