An Amazing Promise!

September 27, 2026

What a wonderful truth! Because Jesus Christ died on the cross, was buried, and rose again on the third day, we can have forgiveness of all our sins. He shed His precious blood so that we could be cleansed and made right with God.

We do not have to carry the guilt of our past. Jesus paid the price for us. All we need to do is trust Him, believe on Him, and receive Him as our Savior.

Psalm 103:12 reminds us just how completely God forgives:

“As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.”

What an amazing promise! When we come to Jesus in faith, our sins are not just covered—they are forgiven. He removes them from us as far as the east is from the west.

Have you trusted Jesus as your Savior? Today can be the day. Believe on Him and receive the wonderful gift of salvation and forgiveness that only Jesus can give.

Love And Forgive

August 20, 2026

Do you have someone you will not forgive?

Forgiveness is a choice. We can harbor that hurt and not forgive or you can choose to forgive and try to mend that broken relationship.

If restoration is not possible, then forgive that person in your heart. Pray for those who despite fully use use you, the Bible tells us. It is hard to hold onto not forgiving when you genuinely pray for that person.

Decide today and start to pray for that one who has hurt you. You will have a freedom you cannot imagine until you do.

So We Truly Love Our Neighbor?

August 4, 2026

Do you find it hard to love some people? Maybe it is a fellow worker, a disagreeable neighbor, someone in your family, a person of another race or religion.

It is a natural reaction to not love someone who has hurt you, but that is the problem. It is a “natural” reaction. The Bible tells us in Ephesians as Christians to put off the old man which is corrupt and put on the new man, which is holy.

How then do we overcome the lack of love in our lives? Start to pray for that person if it is an individual. Ask God to change your heart if it is a group of people.

We cannot be an obedient Christian or have God’s blessings if we have hate in our heart.

Quote From Corrie ten Boom

July 9, 2026

“Forgiveness is the key that unlocks the door of resentment and the handcuffs of hatred. It is a power that breaks the chains of bitterness and the shackles of selfishness.”

Corrie was a woman who suffered terribly in a concentration camp in World War II. Her father and sister died from cruelty of prison guards.

She became well known after the war by writing and speaking of her experiences. Her faith in the Lord Jesus was what got her through those terrible times.

She realized that she must forgive the person who caused her so much pain and grief when she came face to face with him after one of her speeches.

This former prison guard stretched out his hand and asked her forgiveness. After several seconds she realized that she must with God’s help forgive him. She took his hand and felt God’s amazing love flow through her.

And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses. Mark 11:25&26

Forgiveness!

July 26, 2025

Has someone hurt you? You feel angry and that person does not deserve to be forgiven.

What about you? How many times have you hurt our loving Savior, Jesus? Maybe by thought or action that does not please Him. Then in His love and mercy, He has forgiven you. Not just once but numerous times.

How much more should we forgive that person who has hurt us? God tells us to forgive. It isn’t easy sometimes but if you truly want to forgive, He will give us the strength to forgive.

It is a choice. We can continue to have resentment in our heart or consciously forgive. The right choice gives us freedom that true obedience gives.

How To Treat Your Enemies!

April 2, 2025

Forgive your enemies, it will mess with their mind.”
This is a quote from a church sign. Catchy but true. The Bible tells us to forgive and also do something good for your enemies.

The best thing we can do is pray for them, the next is to witness to them in a simple non confrontational way.

SOS asks this question, ” Do you know the 3 Things God Can Not Do.”
Simple, thought provoking and an easy way to witness to your family, friends and even your enemies.

God Forgives Sin

January 25, 2025

Intimacy with God requires a repentant heart. In His love, God says when we confess our sin, He is faithful and just to cleanse us. That cleansing restores our fellowship with Him.

God hates sin because He is Holy and Righteous. Sin is anything we have done that God has commanded us not to do.

All have sinned and come short. You can watch a small child only months old and already they are sinners. Selfishness and disobedience. They will be playing and grab a toy from another child, hit or bite.

Jesus paid the penalty for all our sins if we by faith ask His forgiveness, repent of our sin and put our trust in Him.
