The Journey

Forgiving is the summit of self-mastery.

In its refining fire love steels the human heart,

thereby illuminating the way to become

healer, peacemaker, and child of God.

In its crucible one surrenders, with joy, to Father,

and on the heart is thus engraved the path by which

Eternity’s Covenant is realized.

By forgiving, the mortal heart becomes divine.
