Forgiveness for Sins
“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1:9 (NIV)
Don’t hide from Christ, as our first parents did when they sinned, but run to Him to find grace and forgiveness. Don’t be ignorant of the Savior’s love for you and His desire to forgive you and restore you to all righteousness in His sight. Satan is perfectly happy to make you think that God is against you, but He is not. God loves you and wants to forgive you.
The Savior is faithful to His promise to forgive us of our sins, but He can not if we keep running from Him and pretending that we are not in need of forgiveness. Confess and confess often, as often as you may need.
Let’s pray today that as sin arises in our life we will run to the Savior and accept His forgiveness.
