Day 23

Hebrews 8:12 ~ “I will forgive their sins and will no longer remember their wrongs.” (GNT)

It amazes me how God knows everything about us and still chooses to bless us. I mean, if you sit back and think on the things you’ve done, even within the past week, you’d be hard pressed to try and prove you’re worthy. We sin against God; we sin against ourselves and our neighbors. But, the moment we ask for forgiveness, the slate is wiped clean. I want to remind you today that God not only forgives our sins, He forgets them as well. We come to Him with our head hung low, apologetic and remorseful. We’re embarrassed because we’ve let Him down. We promised to never do it again, and yet here we are, standing with broken promises in hand.  He extends His hand, lifts up our chin and says, “It’s ok, I forgive you.” And just like that, it’s gone. He loves us so much that He is willing to look beyond our faults and see us for who we really are….heirs to the kingdom of heaven.
