DAY TWELVE

“For as high as the heavens are above the earth,

so great is His love for those who fear Him;

as far as the east is from the west,

so far has He removed our transgressions from us.

Psalm 103:11,12

COMMENT

Today’s verses are amazing!  How high are the heavens above the earth?  Immeasurable, you say.  Where do the heavens begin and end so you can have a starting point from which to measure? That’s how great God’s love is for you and me.  There is no place to start measuring because God has no beginning or end.  How far is the east from the west?  We don’t know because we don’t know where the east begins and west ends.  That’s how far God has taken your sins and put them right out of the way.  Far enough for Him not to remember them anymore.  That’s very important. If God has removed your sins from you and blanked them out of His mind, shouldn’t you do the same?

PRAISE AND THANKSGIVING

Why don’t you thank the Lord today that He loves you so much that He has taken your sins and flung them so far away that He will never think about them again?  That’s enough reason to thank Him every day forever.
