Children of Mine,
Salted sapphire holds fast
as hearts steep into wells of past;
suffer not, dear children, these wailing sounds,
as we wrestle ourselves to ancient grounds.
In His mercy, ancient grounds of sin are no longer remembered by God. But sometimes our past misdeeds still haunt our thoughts.
Do not surrender to earth’s deadly lust,
nor suffocate underneath her barren dust.
Let not our transgressions rest upon your sweet heads;
but sleep in peace beneath the love He bled.
In our godly maturity, we loathe our past transgressions. We want our children to carry out better choices.
Smolder not to ash as we, ourselves, deserve;
but tread the linear path, resisting the wide curve.
Take not to heart the inferno beds we made,
but choose Life through Jesus Christ which will never fade!
Upon our sincere request, Jesus forgives us. We must also forgive ourselves.
As parents, we don’t want our children to mimic our mistakes, but history often repeats itself. Spiritual maturity blesses us with the saturation of God’s wisdom upon our lives. We can change the course of yesteryear thru the rebirth of living a better example today.
♥️ Jesus makes all things new again! ♥️
