Meditation 2

Proverbs 23:26 

26 Give me your heart, my son, and let your eyes observe my ways;

 

Meditation 2

 

It does not take much … a word here and there

or just some action with vague intentions

to bring hurt to others … who really care

the sensitive and uncertain in pretensions

 

As actions are done in sincerity and love

from where does appear misunderstanding?

It is not through love from the Father above

or is it your own heart’s remembrance?

 

Of the things that brought pain … again and again

and the wounds which were open and bare

which now are scaled over … the beginning of scars

that will stay as through time you will fare

 

The answers are none … only time will heal some

of the pains and the hurts of life’s pathway

Some will stay on and on as life’s purpose is done

for so are the ways of our being in “harm’s way.”

 

Just accept day to day what is coming your way

with contentment and hope for the learning

There are no accidents in life … just constant strife

as you from yourself … split the discerning
