77 Times




77 Times


Who will rejoice
The rebirth
Of a loving heart?


Embrace
The waking
With wide open arms?

Affirm
The rebound
With genuine grace?


Support
The return
With infinite love?



The bright torch of recovery
Burns in cold, dark nights


The straight walk of recovery
Derails the mainline


The anchor of recovery
Moors the blessed faith


The balm of recovery
Heals broken spirits


The mender of recovery
Saves lost wretched souls


Celebrate the redemption

Of God's creations

Sons and daughters

Brothers and sisters

Husbands and wives

Lovers and friends

For they once were dead

But now they are alive


Frank R. Thompson


"Ask not to be forgiven, for this has already been accomplished. Ask, rather, to learn how to forgive, and to restore what always was to your unforgiving mind."
-A course in miracles
