We all have those little things that give us strength that keeps us going everyday. Whenever I feel like giving up on my H or I start to wonder "why am I still here?" I like to listen to Donnie McClurkin's Alter Call. It makes me think "How can I expect God to forgive me of my sins if I can't forgive other's?" I know I am not God...I am human and there comes a point to when do you say enough is enough??? But aren't we so lucky that GOD never says ENOUGH?
<p>"The bible says in Proverbs 24:18 'A just man- a JUST man- falleth 7 times but rises back up again'. Now what makes him just? We in the church would call him wicked if he falls seven times. One time we can understand, twice maybe, but SEVEN times? Well, what makes him "Just" from the bible stand point is that he has enough sense to realize that he can get back up. And not only just get back up but get back in line. No matter where you've fallen from, no matter what you've done, no matter how many times you've done it, it's not too late. He is so much in love with you that His mercy endures. His mercy is everlasting. It's not too late. No matter WHAT you've done, no matter where you've been, God is still faithful and He's still just even when we're unfaithful and when we're NOT just. He's so faithful and just that He will forgive you of
every single solitary sin. No matter how many promises you've made and broken, no matter how many times you've done it over and over and over again. I'm a living witness He will forgive you, like He forgave me. He's just waiting on you to confess. Just say 'Lord, have mercy. Forgive me. I'm not even going to make you any more promises, You know my heart. I want to do right. Show me how. Take me back. Put me back in line. I love you. Teach me how to walk right. Break every habit. Loose me from every addiction. Come into my life and my heart and live in me and through me. I give you my life for the rest of my life.' And just that quickly, you're forgiven. Just that quickly, you're healed. He's your God and you're His child. No condemnation.
No condemnation! Don't remember the past sins because He's forgotten them. Isaiah 43:25 says 'I, even I, am He that blocks out your transgressions and for mine own sake, I will not remember your sins." If He's forgotten them, then you forgive and forget too. You're healed, you're saved, you're whole."<p>We can not comprehend the magnitude of Christ's love for us but it is our jobs as Christians to strive to be Christ-like. We hurt God so much every day in our actions, words, and even thoughts that are not pleasing to Him but He never stops loving us. My H may make mistakes but I will not stop loving him.
