Curse or Disperse

When the problem confronts me, knotty and mean,
what am I prone to do, will I curse it?
Or, shall I in hindsight, replay each scene,
as the bitter thing happened, rehearse it?

Will problems unravel, will feelings improve,
as I brood on the wrong, dwell and nurse it?
God has said in His word, there's an antidote--love;
and His way is, perhaps, to reverse it.

Love your enemies, even those who compete,
He has said, lest we try to coerce it.
Can the miracle happen, bitter made sweet?
Let His wisdom and power disperse it.
