Second chances

When I think of mercy,
I think of second chances
and forgiveness.

I think of a loving God
who is always waiting
to take us back,
no matter how far we stray.

I think of a mother’s love
that never falters
and a father’s hand
that is always ready to catch us when we fall.

I think of mercy as a soft rain
that washes away The dirt
and leaves us feeling clean and new.

I think of mercy as a light
in the darkness
that guides us back
to the path of righteousness.

Mercy is something we all need
and something we should all give
for it is the only thing
that can truly heal our hearts.
