“As far as the East is from the West, so far has He (God) removed our transgressions from us.” Psalm 103:12

Are you holding on to your past? Refusing to let go of something you’ve done to yourself, to a friend, to a love one, or even to a complete stranger? Do you feel guilty and remorseful? Feeling that there must be something you can do to correct the situation? Are you tired of living daily with the thought of what you have done and are searching for something, anything to make the unwanted memory go away? Cannot imagine going through life free from your past? The real question is, are you ready to accept forgiveness?

Freedom Is Closer Than You Think.

On the cross Jesus paid for every sin you have ever committed. He bore your transgressions and your iniquities. He stood in your place and took the punishment for you to give you life. Ephesians 2:1 says, “and you Jesus made alive who were dead in sin”.  You can live again through Christ, and I mean truly live with joy and complete peace! I love how Psalms 103:12 talks about just how far we can be separated from our past: “As far as the East is from the West, so far has He (God) removed our transgressions from us.” Today, stop holding on to your past. Turn your past over to Jesus, ask his forgiveness, and then forget about it! That’s exactly what He is going to do!
