Jeremiah 31:34b
"For I will forgive their wrongdoing and never again remember their sins"
One of the problems of being human is trying to forget the wrongs that are done against us. We forgive, but that memory just seems to keep popping up its ugly head. We find it impossible to truly forget the wrong.
That is what's so awesome about our God. He has the ability to truly forget. When we confess our sins to him, and seek forgiveness, those sins are cast on the sea of forgetfulness. God never brings them up again, because they were paid for on the cross.
You see, to paraphrase a statement I heard, God doesn't hold anything over our heads, because his desire is to hold us in his hands.
God truly can forgive and forget. Go and do likewise.
Amen
