Mercy's Boundless Journey: From Marked Earth to Sacred Cross #418*

Mercy's Boundless Journey: From Marked Earth to Sacred Cross In ancient tales, threads intertwine, Cain walks, marked yet spared by divine. A grace that sails through history's course, Leading us to the cross, stark and bared in force. Underneath the vast, starlit skies, A question echoes, as old as time lies. "How many times forgiveness shall rise?" "Not seven," He whispers, "but as the ocean's size." This essence, this core, Speaks of a love that opens every door. From Cain's mark to the cross's embrace, A journey of mercy, filled with grace. A lesson profound in the heart's own script, Forgiveness sown, deeply encrypted. A call to the soul, to rise and uplift, In grace, our hearts forever dipped. Shadowed by mercy, we find our stride, Forgiving beyond the limits of tide. In the light of compassion, we abide, With divine love as our guide. On this path of redemption, no soul is lost, From marked earth to sacred cross. A journey of love, no matter the cost, In the realm of mercy, our spirits tossed. Written by Steven G. Lee (February 28, 2024)
