DAILY?READINGS: Judges 6; Isaiah 27; 1 Corinthians 6

 

Through this man is preached unto you the foregiveness of sins:.
Acts 13:38

 

In a quiet and beautiful cemetery outside New York is a grave marked with a simple tombstone with just one word engraved on it—Forgiven. Who is interred there is not revealed. The occupant chose not to reveal an identity but to assure the passerby of what was really important in life and before death, to be forgiven. —Brian Powlesland

 

Not far from New York, in a cemetery lone,
Close guarding its grave, stands a simple headstone,
And all the inscription is one word alone – Forgiven
The death is unmentioned, the name is untold,
Beneath lies the body, corrupted and cold,
Above rests his spirit, at home in the fold – Forgiven.
