Devotional Thought May 19th

A great thought today in our devotion...

VBS Needs
We are still needing several people to help
in VBS. Sunday we will have a list and we
need your help. A great way to serve the
Lord is to be involved in VBS!!! Please sign
up or e mail me for more info.
 
BIBLE MEDITATION:
"For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more." Hebrews 8:12

DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
Have you ever felt like you have used up God's reservoir of forgiveness? Perhaps you've thought, "I don't have a right to come and ask Him to forgive me again." Friend, it doesn't matter how many times we have sinned. Suppose you came back to God the 5,000th time with the same sin. Will He forgive you? Yes indeed, He will. As far as He is concerned, it is the first time you have come to Him. Why? Because He has forgotten all the other times. Our God doesn't hold grudges. He does punish sin, but He doesn't hold grudges. The God of Jonah, David, Mark, Peter, and Jacob is your God and my God. I have come to Him so many times and asked Him for a second chance. And guess what? He has given it.

ACTION POINT:
I know that if He can give Adrian a second chance, He will certainly give you another chance. Failure is not final.
