Daily Thoughts - Forgiveness
"The Lord has made his victory known; has revealed his triumph in the sight of the nations, He has remembered his mercy and faithfulness toward the house of Israel. All the ends of the earth have seen the victory of our God." Psalms 98:2-3
Forgiveness, is the mercy that was remembered. As I read scripture this morning, God brought me to Adam and Eve. Sin entered the world as did confessions, sacrifice for the sin and forgiveness from God, when He handed them loin skin. "The Lord God made for the man and his wife garments of skin, with which he clothed them." Genesis 3:21
This message is repeated over and over again until we realize how much we are loved by God. Sin begins to be rooted out of our lives. We begin to stop living for self and we learn to live for Him. This is the victory God speaks about in His word. This is the understanding that gives us strength to fight the good fight.
How many times must God repeat Himself before it sinks in. He will not forget His mercy towards the house of Israel. Ask for forgiveness, pick yourself up and go again. In the end He is victorious and so are we that listen to His voice. Safe travels on your journey, remember little eyes are watching, your example is their future. Be forgiving.
Dear Lord God, thank You for this day, thank You for the gift of insight and inspiration, in the stillness You speak loudest. Prayers for a friend in the battle, may love be the motivating factor as they move forward. Prayers for another trying to figure it out, may You be heard in the quiet time. In Jesus name, Amen.
Mary, Queen of Heaven, Pray for us.
