"Christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes."
So often I forget, that righteousness is found in Jesus Christ only. So often I look at my sins and deem myself condemned. But in Christ i am found righteous. It is a revelation that I will learn, and keep learning.
Hebrews 8:12
"For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and lawful deeds"
"God is showing you that He does not record your sins or failures today. Instead, He records your faith confessions and deeds done in response to what His Son has done for you. Every time you sin, every time you waver in your faith, God does not record it. But every time you believe Him and respond in faith, He records it! That should not make you want to sin more. It should free you to love God more!"
Everyday I make mistakes. I sin, I flare up, I disappoint people, I disappoint myself. But what greater joy and liberation is it to know that your sins are not recorded by God! I know myself and I know what makes me tick or get angry. But God's love compels me to look beyond my sins and transgressions and look to His love... Thank you Lord!!
