God Does Not Hold Grudges

God does not hold grudges.
By: Robert A. Searles

    "If thou, Lord shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared. I wait for the Lord, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope." Psalm 130: 3,4,5.

    Praise God! He does not hold grudges and hold our sins and wrong doing over our heads to condemn us; but he is ever ready to hear our confession and self judgment, and remember our sins no more. 

If we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us of our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness, otherwise, if this were not the case, who could stand? Who would be able to serve him? Who would be able to preach and to teach? For none is worthy unless he accounts them to be worthy through his grace, and mercy and forgiveness, for -

" There is none righteous in himself, no ,not one, for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God." 

Therefore, once having brought our sins before God, and claiming the cleansing power of his shed blood, let us go our way rejoicing and sin no more.

Each new day he gives us a clean new slate upon which to write the history of our lives. Beginning today, the first day of the rest of our lives, with the strength of our forgiven, redeemed lives and  resurrected souls, let us be renewed in our mind and empowered by the Holy Spirit to go forth today to our place of duty and service and be glad, and do all that God wants us to do for him.
