Remembering Your Forgiveness by Raymond A. Foss

In the prayer we shared
thinking deeply about our sin
yet remembering your forgiveness
your atoning love
not the stain of our sin

Forgiven by God
as if we had not sinned
coming clean before the Lord
the lamb’s atoning blood
making us whole once more

“Loving God, hold not our sins against us; but
hold us up against our sins; so that in you we are

not just of what we are but what we might become.”

“Father in Heaven! Hold not our sins up against us but
hold us up against our sins so that the thought of You
when it wakens in our soul, and each time it wakens,
should not remind us of what we have committed but
of what You did forgive, not of how we went astray
but of how You did save us!”
