Forgiven By God

Verse of the day - Psalm 32:1 (NRSV)

HAPPY  are those whose transgression is forgiven.

In the sixth chapter of my first book Jesus speaks to us about His forgiveness.

Excerpt from Spirituality A Journey For My Soul

My dear children, the love I have for you is great.  My heart burns with desire for all to come to me in repentance.  My desire for for everyone to come to the foot of the cross and ask for forgiveness of their sins.  I gave My own body and blood for this very purpose.  When you come to the foot of the cross and confess your sins before Me, they are forgiven.  I remember your sins no more.

When we have sinned, Jesus desires us to come to Him and ask for forgiveness.  Through the sacrament of Reconciliation we are forgiven.  When we sin, no matter how big or little the sin is, we sin against God.  Jesus poured out His life's Blood on the cross to save us from our sins.  Through His Blood we are forgiven.  As He was dying on the cross, He cried out to His Father in Heaven and said, "Father do not hold this sin against them."  Not only did he forgive everyone who persecuted Him at the time, He also forgave us.  We were on His mind while He suffered for the sins of the world.  We will be forgiven by God for the sins we commit, if we ask Him.  He is ready and waiting for us to reach out to Him.
