Writing 4 Monday...6/15/20..."BLOTTED OUT"


Good Morning.

The theme of the writing for today is the forgiveness of sins bought by the blood sacrificed by Jesus. Our sin was literally "blotted out," Carol wrote, "Jesus' blood covers our sins so completely that they are gone!  What a concept -- not only gone, but forgotten forever.  Praise God for Jesus' sacrifice for you!"

When you pray to God about things for which you are grateful, His forgiveness of sin should be at the top of  you list.

Blessings for an amazing week,
Carol Steficek

"Though your sins are like scarlet, 
they shall be as white as snow; 
though they are red as crimson, 
they shall be like wool."
Isaiah 1:18



I'm a nurse and I know from experience that it is very difficult to get blood stains out of uniforms or other clothing.  Have you ever had a paper cut and found the piece of paper that you were handling had a bloodstain on it? 



If you've noticed, blood over ink totally blots out the word.  That's the way it is with our sins for those of us who believe in Jesus.  He shed His very life blood to blot out our sins forever.


Most of us, even when we forgive, do remember the incident later.  It has always amazed me that the Father says He not only sees us in Christ when we are forgiven but He also doesn't remember our sins anymore.  



Do you know why?:  The blood.  Jesus' blood covers our sins so completely that they are gone!  What a concept -- not only gone, but forgotten forever.  Praise God for Jesus' sacrifice for you!
