Good morning! How are we faithing? Have you ever thought about just how much we are forgiven? A concept that is mind boggling. I know I've pulled some bone headed moves and am forgiven for them. Have you thought about how much you have been forgiven for? Be honest here. This is a question designed for you to realize how much you are loved, not to feel guilty and down. Only you know all Jesus forgave you for and that is between you and him. We are forgiven if we believe in Jesus as savior. He is standing between you and God so only he is seen, not sin. So when the books of justice get opened, your name is clear. Look at these;
Colossians 3:13-14
Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.
NIV
Ephesians 2:8-10
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
NIV
Romans 5:1-2
Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.
NIV
Heavenly Father,
Thank you for being a loving, forgiving Lord. We ask to be so full of your joy we cannot contain it. We ask to be aware of your grace and forgiveness every second. We ask to be aware of your Holy Spirit prompting us all the time. Lord help us not be swayed by this world. Lord protect the innocent and grant us courage to do what is just and pleasing to you. In Jesus name, Amen
