Day Fourteen: God the Healer: We are Forgiven!

                                                                       Day Fourteen

                                        "the forgiveness of our trespasses"  Ephesians 1:7b


Yes, that's right folks, what the blood of Christ boils down to is, yes, we are forgiven for our trespasses...and trespasses is a fancy word for sin, wrongdoing, lies, betrayal, shame, remorse, pain, regrets, and just whatever is standing in your way from true communion and relationship with the Father and with Christ and the Holy Spirit.

This is the true message of the Cross, what all those bible thumpers try to thump you with seemingly unsuccessfully, what the Pastors so faithfully preach, that you are forgiven.  You are no longer condemned for your past mistakes or wrongfulness.  You can walk in new life and freedom, away from the pain and shame that blocks you from true peace and happiness.

I pray that this true of God's forgiveness would wash over you and bring about a divine understanding of your position in this world without the blood of Christ and that that revelation would bring about a true declaration of a need for God to work in your life.  Let the bitterness and the hardness of heart dissipate as you see the glorious love the Father has for you and is extending to you, reaching out his arms of grace, to you personally.

Be healed, be washed, be found complete in his love today.

"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."  1 John 1:9
