Forgiveness

You are a forgiving God, gracious and compassionate,
slow to anger and abounding in love.
Nehemiah 9:17

Perhaps the sin was huge, and you're still suffering its consequences. Even though you feel deeply sorry for what you did and have apologized to those you hurt, guilt burdens your heart and weighs your spirit. Do not let that sin continue on its damaging rampage through your soul. Instead, give your sorrow to the God who is bigger than any sin you could possibly commit. Be comforted by His promise of restoration and renewal, and go forward in forgiveness.
