No Record Of Our Sin
If, You, Lord, should mark iniquities,
O Lord, who could stand?
{Psalm 130:3}
Thankfully, God forgives. He does not keep an account of past sins,
no matter how many or how grievous they have been. "There is
therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus"
{Rom. 8:1}. God's forgiveness then leads us to fear Him
{Ps. 130:4}. We worship and adore God, for grace and forgiveness
cause us to love Him all the more.
But what happens if we slide back into old sins? What if
sins lingers? We are to repent and "wait for the Lord"
and be patient while God works {vv. 5-6}. We are not hope-
less cases. We can "hope" in the One who will deliver us
in His own time.
We now have these two assurances: God's unfailing love...
He will never leave us or forsake us {Heb. 13:5}. And God's
promise of full redemption in due time...He will redeem us
from all iniquities {Ps. 130:8} and present us before His
glorious presence without fault and with great joy {Jude 24}.
How blest is he whose trespass
Has freely been forgiven,
Whose sin is wholly covered
Before the sight of heaven.
When we're forgiven, no record
is kept of our failures.
May the Lord richly bless you!
