Penitent ... Heal

Today's word is "penitent" ... PEN-i-tuhnt ... feeling or expressing sorrow for sin or wrongdoing and disposed to atonement and amendment; repentant; contrite. (Dictionary.com)

Heal
In our brokenness,
And through our fears,
We work out love's commands.

Sometimes those shattered places 
Are a sabbath from ourselves,
Where penitence brings peace.
