He Doesn’t Remember
“I will remember their sins no more.” Hebrews 8:12 RSV
I was thanking the Father today for his mercy. I began listing the sins he’s forgiven. One by one I thanked God for forgiving my stumbles and tumbles. My motives were pure and my heart was thankful, but my understanding of God was wrong. It was when I remember that it hit me.
“Remember the time I…” I was about thank God for another act of mercy. But I stopped. Something was wrong. The word remember seemed displaced… “Does he remember?”
Then I remembered. I remembered his words. “And I will remember their sins no more.”
Wow! Not, that is a remarkable promise.
God doesn’t just forgive, he forgets…For all the things he does do, this is one he refuses to do. He refuses to keep a list of my wrongs.
