Forgiven

There is no other god like you, O Lord; you forgive the sins of your people who have survived. You do not stay angry forever, but you take pleasure in showing us your constant love. ~ Micah 7:18 (GNT)

God canceled the unfavorable record of our debts with its binding rules and did away with it completely by nailing it to the cross. ~ Colossians 2:14 (GNT)

KEY IDEA:
God does not hold our sins against us.
PRAYER:
Loving God, you sent your Son Christ Jesus to wipe away the record of all our sin. You really must love us. Sometimes, though, I have a hard time accepting your acceptance. I want to beat myself up over the wrong and stupid things I do. Help me to focus on your love and forgiveness so that I can begin to live as a fully loved and truly forgiven person. Amen.
