Mercy experienced

Mercy experienced

You cannot run from me my beloved,

for I have you in the palm of my hand,

I know your deepest recesses,

places that you do not know,

I see your wounds and failures,

yet I love what I see,

for nothing is hidden from my sight.

I will never stop loving you,

something humans don’t understand,

a love that is unending,

true and freely given,

for all are my children.

Judge not others my child,

for all have deep hidden shadows that I see,

I know their wounds,

failures, anger and yes rage,

just as I know yours.

The mercy you have experienced from me my child,

freely given without merit on your part

is given to all,

only I the infinite one,

your Savior

see the recesses of the heart,

which you may see as a dim reflection

of yourself in others and condemn.
