Extravagant Forgiveness

Dad & Ellie

Hi Friends, 

Allow me to share a few thoughts on forgiveness. 

God's forgiveness is extravagant. I don't know how else to describe it. What Christ has done for us exceeds my capacity to understand it. 

His sacrifice has advanced my life further than any self-sacrifice ever could. When I've messed up, like royally screwed up, God already knows and has already unleashed his forgiveness upon me. it leaves me stunned. 

God's forgiveness in full force is fierce. 

Here are the facts: 

1. It's the truth of forgiveness that defeats the lies we believe about ourselves. 
2. Forgiveness destroys our indifference to his love. 
3. Forgiveness is like rain that falls in the drought conditions of our desolate souls. 
4. Like grace abounding where sin is committed, forgiveness shows up like bouncers bringing order. 
5. Forgiveness is like a garden where we can grow in the soil of our situation. 

Life is so good when God can take what the enemy meant for our destruction and make it conform to his purpose. 

Life gets better every day! 

Much Love, 
Jeremy E.
