The Gift of Forgiveness
For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.—Matthew 6:14 (NIV)
Today's daily devotion
Stay on Track
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.—1 John 1:9 (NIV)
Max Lucado wrote that God uses guilt like highway engineers use rumble strips. When we swerve off track, they call us back. Guilt can be a powerful reminder when we veer off course in our spiritual journey. Use it to help you stay on the right path—and if you feel burdened by guilt, trust God’s mercy to love and restore you.
Heavenly Father, thank You for guiding me back to Your path when I stray. Help me maintain a healthy balance between acknowledging my sins and accepting Your mercy and love.
