“So today as I was cleaning out my phone and deleting things I no longer needed..I began to think about Gods grace and His forgiveness that He gives to us..and each of us at that..and at how I was cleaning it all up I thought well let me make sure I do not want this stuff any longer before I go deleting these things..because once I delete them than there gone..Amen..and I don’t get them back..but anyways I begin to think as I said about Gods grace and forgiveness and at how He as well does the very same thing with us when it comes to our sins that we have committed and things that we have done..and at how He washes us clean from them and the bible says that the Lord is faithful and just to forgive us of our sins..1 John 1:9..Amen..but the thing about us all..well me anyways is that I can’t at times seem to forgive myself..you know what I mean?..when I do things or say things that are not at all what I should be saying and or doing..then it is hard for me to get over it and to let it go..I will keep bringing these things before the Lord time and time again asking Him for His forgiveness..Amen..even though the word of God says that the Lord takes our sins and cast them as far as the east is from the west..so far the bible says has God removed our transgressions from us..Psalm 103:12..and as well is says NEVER to be brought up against us again..Isaiah 43:25..Amen!”

“And that to me is pretty incredible to say the least..Amen..for you see God is not like man..and somehow we get that picture or image of Him..being some kind of person that brings up our past..or maybe doesn’t really forgive us..or even keeps count..Amen..but I must say that I hope and pray that we know that God is not that way..and that we ourselves must forgive ourselves..and we must move on..if we truly have asked God to forgive us and that bible says that we as well are to turn away from the sin..than we are truly and honestly forgiven..so I pray we as well forgive ourselves..shake off that doubt and the guilt..and put on Gods grace and forgiveness..for we can’t hold on to our yesterday and or the person in whom we was..because our yesterday is gone..Amen..and we are made new..we are not what we used to be..nor should we ever desire to be what we once were..but we are new creations in Christ..and we are bought with such a great price..so let us walk in our newness..and let us let go of our sins..and let us know that we are forgiven..and we are free to live in that forgiveness..for we are not perfect..but we do try our best..and that is what God desires from each of us..to simply do our best..and follow the Lords words..go and sin no more..John 8:11..your sins they were many but now are they gone washed whiter than snow..Psalm 51:7..Amen..so walk in who you are in Christ..and no that Jesus is no accuser of the brethren..and that only the enemy of our souls does that..Revelation 12:9-11..and that is bring up our past..and bring up our failures..but whom the Son sets free is free indeed..John 8:36..so be free..be forgiven..and live your best life..for it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
