FORGIVENESS

"She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more."

John 8:11
King James Version

William James Kirkpatrick wrote the hymn "LORD, I’M COMING HOME". "I’m tired of sin and straying, Lord, Now I’m coming home; I’ll trust Thy love, believe Thy Word, Lord, I’m coming home."

Even after Jesus saves us, there are times when we need to ask Him to forgive us because of hurting Him and hurting others. None of us are perfect. Just because I write devotions doesn't mean I'm perfect. I get upset when someone says something that hurts my feelings and I have to ask God to forgive me.

If you have allowed bitterness, unforgiveness, anger, jealousy, resentment and other things that hurt our Heavenly Father to remain in your heart, tell Him you're sorry. He will be faithful to forgive you. He loves you very much.
