So many times our humanness gets in the way of a right relationship with the Lord. In a twisted form of arrogance, we place our wretched past up on a pedestal and proclaim it to be “too terrible” for the Lord to forgive. Yes, your past may be riddled with bad choices…but nothing God hasn’t forgiven beforehand. Murder, adultery, rape…the list goes on in the Bible of deplorable actions done by people in difficult situations. But when they took responsibility for their sins and asked forgiveness…God forgave them. For there’s nothing so serious, so vile, that God’s redemptive power can’t forgive.

Romans 6:23 ” For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. “
If we live a sinful life, in the end, our compensation for all that evil will be death and eternal separation from God. But if we accept the gift of salvation offered to us by Jesus Christ, we are redeemed by way of His death and resurrection. That free gift of Salvation isn’t something we can ever begin to pay for…for Jesus has already paid the price for us.
