"No sin is too big!!!" I have screwed up so much in my life and there
has been one sin - it was something I said, that I felt was so heinous,
I wasn't even sure if I could ever be forgiven by God for it - it was
said in my time of confusion and rebellion and it attacked the Savior,
Jesus. Last night at a very moving and powerful Easter service our
pastor said these words, "No sin is too big!!!" Psalm 103 states that
God forgives ALL our sins, and Jesus in his mercy showed me that he is
mightier than any of my sin and that to think I'm not forgiven not only
leaves me in uncertain bondage, but also diminishes his power and
work....I felt the peace come over me last night - the forgiveness of
ALL my sins!
I used to be very entranced with Mary of Bethany and
her deed of anointing Jesus before his death with perfume and wiping his
feet with her hair - her devotion and touchiness to the Lord...now, I
have been overwhelmed by another woman who did this same act....one who
is referred to as the sinful woman....one who shocked the "pious" people
of Jesus day that he would let this sinful woman touch him...Jesus said
about her, "She loves much because she has been forgiven much."
From
seeing myself as Mary of Bethany in my faithful days and finally coming
back home as now the sinful but forgiven woman, I fall at the feet of
my Savior, and with tears & kisses adore him dearly!!!
