God is grace. God is love. God is justice. God is peace. God is hope. God is joy. God is...
God is FORGIVENESS.
One of the greatest attributes God has is His willingness to forgive us when we go astray.
Each day we make mistakes: big mistakes and little mistakes. We sin against God and we sin against the people in our lives.
We could wallow in that sin and allow the guilt to overtake us as individuals - - many people have - - but instead we know that we can go to God and seek out forgiveness, and we can be confident in knowing that He will give it.
God is willing to grant us the freedom from our sins - to give us the forgiveness we need - we just need to go to Him and ask for it.
Being forgiven allows us to be open to the love God has for us. Forgiveness gives us the room in our soul to allow God's joy to seep into our being and it grants us the peace we need to live each day with hope for tomorrow. Forgiveness from God gives us a desire to see the rest of the world treated with justice and mercy; and to give grace to those who maybe do not deserve but who need it.
Forgiveness frees us from the bonds that Satan puts on us and allows us to look toward God free from the mistakes of our past.
Forgiveness is a mighty gift from God.
What sin are you holding on to from which God can release you?
He will set you free.
He will set you free.
