Yep, more questions.
Psalm 103: 6-12 AMPC
6 The Lord executes righteousness and justice [not for me only, but] for all who are oppressed.
7 He made known His ways [of righteousness and justice] to Moses, His acts to the children of Israel.
8 The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and plenteous in mercy and loving-kindness.
9 He will not always chide or be contending, neither will He keep His anger forever or hold a grudge.
10 He has not dealt with us after our sins nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
11 For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great are His mercy and loving-kindness toward those who reverently and worshipfully fear Him.
12 As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us.
Do I believe this?
Then why do I still feel guilty?
Why do I keep a record of my hurts and wrongdoings?
How would things change if I really believed that the righteous God is merciful and loving,
and my sins and failures are gone forever?
Because if I did, I would have to channel that mercy and love to those who hurt me.
Do I even want to do that?
And now we are getting into scary territory. We are in danger of becoming like Jesus.
More tomorrow …
