How do we accept Gods forgiveness

How do we accept Gods forgiveness

Posted by Kenny Vaughan on 5th Sep 2019


I used to fight to forgive myself, but then I thought about how I feel about the person that hurt me forgiving themselves, and nothing about that made sense. The truth is, we have no power to forgive ourselves. The only power we have is to repent and forgive others. The beauty and the miracle is that God forgives us. Then our responsibility becomes accepting His forgiveness so we can move forward living a loving life. So His forgiveness in our lives is not in vain, and so His sacrifice on the cross is not in vain in our own lives. Really, not accepting the forgiveness of Jesus is selfish. It’s not loving. The Bible tells us that those who are forgiven of much, love much, and those forgiven of little love little. That makes perfect sense to me because I have been forgiven of much by Jesus! Thank you, Jesus, for forgiving me and helping me to accept Your forgiveness with gratefulness and to share it with others. Thank you, Jesus, thank you so, so, so, much for forgiving me. I will not take the price You paid for granted, I will not waste it in my own life, and will do all I can to forgive those who sin against me as You have forgiven me. Psalm 103:12”He has removed our sins as far from us as the east is from the west.”
