Faith's Checkbook (By: C.H. Spurgeon)

                                                                 Pardon and Forgiveness

               "He will not always chide:neither will He keep His anger for ever."
                                                                                        ~ Psalm 103:9

  "He will chide sometimes, or He would not be a wise Father for such poor erring children as we are. We know what this chiding means, and we bow before the Lord, mourning that we should cause Him to be angry with us.
  But what a comfort we find in these lines! "Not always" will He chide. If we repent and turn to Him with hearts broken for sin and broken from sin, He will smile upon us at once. It is no pleasure to Him to turn a frowning face toward those whom He loves with all His heart:it is His joy that our joy should be full.
  Come, let us seek His face. There is no reason for despair, or even for despondency. He who pardoned us long ago as a judge will again forgive us as a father, and we shall rejoice in His sweet, unchanging love." (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)

  1. Please pray this prayer with me this morning. Our Father who art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be done on Earth, as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. Forgive us from all of our sins, our debts, and our trespasses against You and man, as we forgive those who are indebted to us, and those who have trespassed against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from all evil: For Thine is Kingdom, and the Power, and the Honor, and the Glory, forever. It is in Christ Jesus' Precious Name, Amen!
