"Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord. Though your sins are scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be as wool."
Isaiah 1:18 NIV Bible
As I wrote this verse, I could feel the pleading in God's heart to his children. It's like he is saying, "Please, come and reason with me. Please hear from my heart how I really see you. You have been forgiven, because my son, Jesus, gave you his righteousness. You are not red with sin, you are white with purity."
I feel really blessed. God is aware of my weaknesses. He is setting me free and healing me. At the same time he is blessing me as if I am totally pure and holy. The cool thing is that I am this in Jesus. I am justified. It is just as if I'd never sinned.
A couple of days ago, our computer got a virus. In order to get rid of it the computer had to be wiped clean of the virus and all the programs that had been corrupted. This morning when I looked at the computer, my daughter had put a beautiful snow scene on the screen as wall paper. What a confirmation of God's message to us!
