Sunday Psalm No Record Of Wrongs

From the chaos of our dysfunctional lives many of us called out to God with words like, “God if you are really there, please help me.”  We were unsure if there really was a power greater that ourselves to hear our cry for help.  However, in unexpected ways God answered our call.  Perhaps through a person He put in our way, or with the quiet voice of His Spirit in our hearts, He reminded us of places where we had heard help was available.  God then opened doors for us to enter a recovery program. 

The writer of the following words also cried out to God because he could no longer live with the sin in his life.

When we receive God’s forgiveness for our sins, God removes every record of our wrongs. He no longer remembers our sins.  God does not have a bad memory. He simply chooses not to remember what He has forgiven.  What about being accountable for our sins?  When Jesus died for our sins, His sacrifice “paid in full” the debt we owed for our rebellion against God.  

We also pray that you will be strengthened with all his glorious power so you will have all the endurance and patience you need.  (Colossians 1:11 NLT)

As we come to understand the amazing gift of God’s grace to us through Jesus, we will be strengthened to live the life God has called us to.

Prayer:  Loving God, Thank You for Your saving grace.  I praise You for all You have done for me and humbly ask for even more of You in my life.  Amen
