Hebrews 6:10
God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them.
Have you ever been going along really smoothly in life and then you make a mistake? You are positive everyone is always going to remember you for that mistake. Nothing you can ever do is going to erase that memory. Perhaps you have known someone whose whole life has been destroyed over one mistake. Any of the wonderful things they ever did were never remembered again. I can give you an extreme example. Most people do not know all the good Hitler actually did for the German people after World War 1. The German economy and pride were at an all-time low. Hitler came in and turned that all around. Germany became a thriving country again. Well, we all know what happened next and yes, it was horrific!
I am going to let you in on a little secret you probably already know. When God sees sin, He sees sin. He doesn’t distinguish between a big sin and a little sin. To Him, all sin is horrific. He is so wonderful to forgive ALL of our sins through grace given to us by the death of Jesus on the Cross. It says He doesn’t remember the sins. This is great because I am sure those sins would surely blot out all the good we have done.
Isn’t it wonderful that our salvation allows God to forgive the bad in our past and remember the good? We are human and we are still going to make mistakes. However, those will never make God forget all the good that is still in us.
Lord, I am sorry for my sins. Thank you for remembering there is still good in me. ~amen
