DAILY READINGS: Ezra 5; Daniel 6; Revelation 2:1-17
For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. Jeremiah 31:34b
Their sins and iniquities will I remember no more. Hebrews 10:17
We are often told to “forgive and forget.” But God does not forget; He chooses “not to remember.” Forgetting is a lapse of the memory; choosing not to remember is an act of the will. How wonderful to know that our God has chosen to completely put our sins out of His mind, to love us so dearly that He does not call them to His remembrance. Let us emulate His example. —A. Fiebig
Because the sinless Saviour died, my sinful soul is counted free;
For God, the just, is satisfied to look on Him and pardon me. —C. L. Bancroft
