Forgiveness

"For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile- The same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, for "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." Romans 10:12-13

Everyone is different and some have done terrible things but whether you are rich or poor, black or white, or young or 99 you matter to God. One sin isn't blacker than another but sin is sin. He has no favorites but loves everyone the same. He loves you before you are even born and right up till you die. When he said Everyone it was capitalized for a reason. Someone may have murdered and had stolen and committed adultery many times but he didn't say if you're good enough you might be saved. He said Everyone Will be saved. The second you call on the Lord, in the blink of your eyes, it is done. He forgives everything and doesn't even remember it anymore so don't keep dragging it up. He said, "as far as the east is from the west." You can go west and never stop. It goes forever. Jesus bled and died and his blood is enough. He wasn't murdered, but it was an intricate played out plan so that one day when we breathe our last breath we will instantly be in the presence of the Lord, forever. You do not have to be perfect, Jesus did that for you. You will still sin, because nobody's perfect. Sin hurts you more than it hurts God because it gives a foothold for satan to bring terrible things in your life and it blinds you to Gods goodness. But you will want to walk differently because of all your life could be, and because if you love your savior you'll want to show it. But it does take faith, believe that you truly are saved and you will please God, knowing that Jesus is enough and you believe it is done. His grace and mercy are extended to you every day and they are more than enough. The more you believe the more exciting life gets here on earth. So let's bring as much heaven down to earth as we can.
