to GOD be the GLORY
~ Forgiveness Is Like An Eraser ~
By Deborah Ann
Forgiveness is like an eraser,
God wipes our sins away
once we confess and repent
for them we don’t have to pay.
For, the slate He rubs clean,
of our every offense
tis why He sent Jesus . . .
to come to our defense.
God doesn’t keep a notebook,
filled up with all our failures
He doesn’t use a magic marker
to highlight our bad behaviors.
For, the only list He is keeping,
are names in the Book of Life
tis why He sent Jesus . . .
to bear the brunt of our strife.
Forgiveness is like an eraser,
the slate has been wiped cleaned
ever since Jesus gave His own life
so ours could be redeemed!
~~~~~~
For God so loved the world,
that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him
should not perish,
but have everlasting life.
I have blotted out, as a thick cloud,
thy transgressions, and, as a cloud,
thy sins: return unto me;
for I have redeemed thee.
