"...I’ll wipe the slate clean for each of them. I’ll forget they ever sinned!" God’s Decree. ~ Jeremiah 31:34b (MSG)
John writes: My children, I am writing this so that you won’t sin. But if you do sin, Jesus Christ always does the right thing, and he will speak to the Father for us. ~ 1 John 2:1 (CEV)
KEY IDEA:
God's forgiveness is total.PRAYER:
Gracious God, thank you for sending Christ into the world to sacrifice his life so that we can experience your forgiveness. It means a lot to me to have my slate washed clean -- over and over again. Even when I don't take my sin seriously enough you go way beyond what might be expected of a forgiving God. Help me to recognize what you are doing for me and to honor you in the right way. I'm going to live as a Jesus-forgiven person. Amen.
