"Blessed are those....whose sins are covered..."

I take spells as it were to write here in this place where almost anyone can get too and read and make comments or pay no attention at all too. But it is my calling to proclaim my weakness as a sinner and yet shout the good news that God is a God of wrath but more than that God is a God of forgiveness and salvation. That is the Good News!

Scripture: Romans 4: 7 "Blessed are those whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered. 8 Blessed are those whose sin the Lord will never count against them."

Observation: Paul writes to the sinner, of which I am one myself, and he writes of grace and forgiveness as well as judgment, and I am thankful that this grace and forgiveness as well as the judgment is available to all.

Application: I don't know of any perfect people today except the one who lives in my heart and knows my every thought (good or bad) and searchs for my soul every minute of everyday.
I am thankful that it is God who does the saving and the forgiving and the judging because I don't think I can do it justice

Prayer: Lord my prayer today is for what I don't deserve but for what you give freely--forgiveness and hope--all wrapped up in your grace and your strength and you power to transform. Thanks for loving me, Stephen

Yieldedness: I must seek to apply God's grace to my life and encourage others to do so as well.
