Written in Stone

Contributed by MMISS on Wednesday, 16th August 2006 @ 08:09:24 PM in AEST
Topic: InspirationalPoems

I guess I'm as guilty as anyone else
I've judged others but excluded myself
Yes I've thrown stones-much more than a few
And I've even avoided some a time or two

But one day I learned my lesson well
When my own world came tumbling down
I met a man.... I thought, caught up in sin
And as I threw my stones I looked back at him
Only to learn that he was innocent
Of the scars that I saw in His hands
But it was my hands, where they belonged
It was a lesson written in stone

And this was what He said:

Now son there have been many- just like you
They've thrown their share of Judgemental- Stones too
Just look at those stones you hold in your hand
Once You Have Thrown Them ...You Can't Take Them Back Again

But He said Don't worry- I forgive you- no doubt
After all- these Scars are what its all about

So I fell at His feet
And I laid down my pride
I said" May Your scars always remind me
BUT BY YOUR GRACE...........GO I
And Lord iIll remember my whole life long
You taught me a lesson
Written in Stone

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
