Psalm 32:1 (NKJV) 32 Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, Whose sin is covered.
Sin is something we will wrestle with throughout our life. None of us is exempt. None of us is perfect.
Some days it’s easy to turn away from temptation. Other days, for whatever reason, it can be harder. Maybe we’re tired, maybe we’re depressed, maybe we are hurting or mad, etc. We give in to the tempter and do exactly what we prayed we wouldn’t do.
This happens to us all at one time or another. The good news is that when we do fall, we have someone that loves us and understands about temptation and our weakness. He understands we are not perfect and He has provided a way for us to be forgiven many times, no matter what it is.
Luke 7:47 (NKJV) 47 Therefore I say to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.”
This woman had many sins, but they were forgiven.
Jesus Christ covered all sin when He died for us on the cross. But that does not mean when we become Christians, His children, we are sinless. It means that when we sin, we need to acknowledge it, go to Him and repent, asking Him to forgive us. It does not mean we have no sin.
We don’t have to live with guilt or shame for the rest of our life. Jesus covered our sin and forgives us as we ask Him to.
We are truly blessed!
