Hebrews 1:3 NLT
The Son radiates God’s own glory and expresses the very character of God, and he sustains everything by the mighty power of his command. When he had cleansed us from our sins, he sat down in the place of honor at the right hand of the majestic God in heaven.
Being clean. Tough thing to do in this world. I sure know that for a fact. How are we to ever climb out of the deep dark pit of sin? How are we to cleanse ourselves from our past? We maybe a new person, but what about before? What happens to all those things?
Well, out with the old, in with the new. When you become a new person, you drop all of that. You leave behind your old habits and sinful ways of the world. When you become a new person, God cleanses you. He forgives and forgets. You are free from sin. That is one reason why God is so amazing. There is no other escape from your past mistakes and sin in this world or any realm. That is why we are to go to God with these things. You let go of them yourself. You must not only ask Him for forgiveness, but you must also forgive yourself. He can forgive you every time you ask, but if you do not let go of it and forgive yourself, it will eat you up. You cannot hold onto the past mistakes in that way. Its over and done. You cannot change it or take it away, but God can forgive you. And you can forgive yourself. We are so blessed to be able to have that option; God is so merciful.
Final Thought: You don't have to live with the past pulling you down, God can make you clean and new. Be refreshed by His Glory.
