"If we confess our sins he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness." -1 John 1:9
I know you've heard people say this a bazillion times, but this bible verse turned my life around. When i first read this I didn't think much of it because I wasn't really soaking in what it was saying. I was reading the words but my mind was on some unrelated topic. But the next time I read it, it hit me. God forgives us. All of us. Any sin we commit, no matter how big or small it is. if we just repent and are truly sorry for what we have done, we're forgiven.
I think it's amazing that Christ gave up his life so that everyone who lived before and after his death could have all of their sins forgiven. Is that not incredible to you? A man who never sinned in his life did that for people he had never even met (but knew were there). I love him so much for that and many other reasons too.
So there you go. My first blog post. I could have waited until tomorrow to set this up but i got very intrigued by blogger after reading another one of Kelsey's posts (If you don't read her blogs, then you need to. Now.). I've worked on homework since I got home at 4:15 until about an hour ago. I need to catch up on sleep soon. Junior year is tough, but God is helping me get though it.
