Thankfully we have a God who is gracious. Can you imagine if God held us accountable for every sin we ever committed? David says in Psalm 130:3-4, 3 If you, Lord, kept a record of sins, Lord, who could stand? 4 But with you there is forgiveness, so that we can, with reverence, serve you. Through God’s mercy we are forgiven. More importantly, through the sacrifice of Jesus, our sins are forgotten. Forgiveness should be freeing to us, which in turn is meant to allow us to serve God fully without hesitation from guilt. We must accept God’s forgiveness completely and go out to serve Him freely.
