Blessed are the merciful (Matthew 5:1-12)
I know it’s the right thing to do.
To let it go, to pray blessing,
To give mercy
Even if it is not deserved
Or even looked for.
I’m not there yet, God.
I’m still nursing my hurt
Like a sick child
And holding my anger
Like a shield.
Help me to remember
That I stand
At the foot of your cross
In need of the mercy
That I need you
To help me give.
