I know that was a loaded question yesterday: What's a Christian to do? Since I've been studying the love of God by flipping around 1 Corinthians 13 to discover ways that God loves me, I have a handle on it. Measuring my response to some issues yesterday, I'm falling down on the "loving" job. Thank heaven that Father never falls down on His job, His love.
God's love for us...keeps no record of wrongs. Amazing.
Ps. 103:12 blows us away with "As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us." How far do you have to go before east turns into west? Forever!
Aren't you glad? On the subject of betrayal, much could be written about forgiveness. But what are your thoughts on "keeps no record of wrongs"?

Our church has been going through a Duane Sheriff study called Love. We are amazed by 1 Corinthians 13 all over again. ♥ Normally, we look to that chapter to instruct us in loving others. Since God is Love (1 John 4:8 NIV), we can flip these verses to reflect on how God loves us. I'm going to blog for a few days on these amazing truths. God's love for us is long-suffering. Whew! Mercy, and Hallelujah. Me and my Pollyanna personality tend to wake up in a new world every day. I love that line from Anne of Green Gables. "Tomorrow is fresh, with not mistakes in it...yet." I may start out fresh, prayed up and ready to walk the walk, but mistakes happen anyway. As I mediate on the long-suffering love that God has for us, gratitude fills my heart. Your thoughts? |
