I Have Cleansed Your Sin

27 Sep

On my way to run an errand, I had to drive under a bridge.  This particular bridge, like many others had it share of trash.  Waiting for the traffic light to turn green, I observed the area.   Something caught my eye on the other side, and it was an array of beautiful flowers. Yellows, oranges and red made the area  on the other side of the bridge look beautiful.

With  trash on one end  and flowers on the other, this made me think of the sin we step into at times. Often times when we sin, we tend to stay there because of guilt and condemnation, I have. 

We can step out of that sin and into the area of the flowers, where there is beauty, grace and mercy.  We may find it difficult to do because of guilt, but there is no condemnation to those that are in Christ Jesus.

Go ahead, step out of the trash and  into the flowerbed.   Receive his forgiveness and love today.  He is waiting.

    What a beautiful thought: a great way to connect trash and flowers to sin and redemption. Thanks for sharing that! God bless!

    very much needed today! Our failures are not as important as the victory of God!

    True victory is rising up from defeat and continuing to fight.
