There is no sin too great for God’s forgiveness.
There is no hurt too deep for God’s healing.
There is no heart too hard for God to soften.
There is no place too far away for God’s love to reach me.
There is no darkness too dark for God’s light to shine.
STOP. Enough! Go no further. No matter where you came from, or what you came out of, God’s intervention leads to revelation, salvation. Adulation.
Don’t look back.
Look up-----at the cross.

Repetition is so important, constantly being reminded to come back to the cross, to keep looking at Christ, every day, every hour, every minute if necessary we must remind ourselves of whose we are, and the freedom we have in Christ.
I really needed to read this today, such a simple poem but so incredibly powerful. Thank you, and well done. XO
God Bless~
Well done!
God's redemptive story, told in any genre is always powerful!
This may be your first poem, but I certainly hope it's not your last poem.
Very well done!
