Forgiveness begins with God

Bunkhouse Beacon - Forgiveness Begins with God

Genesis 3:1-15 NKJV And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, And you shall bruise His heel.”

Romans 3:21-26

Before we ever knew we needed forgiveness, God provided it.

In the Garden of Eden, immediately after humanity's fall, God spoke the first gospel promise, that the serpent's head would be crushed.

This wasn't an afterthought; it was His eternal plan. We often focus on what others have done to us, but our greatest problem has always been what sin has done between God and us.

The debt we owed was insurmountable, yet God paid it through Christ's blood. When we grasp the magnitude of what we've been forgiven, our perspective shifts.

We stop measuring others' offenses with a calculator. Today, meditate on this truth: you have been forgiven a debt you could never repay.

Let that reality soften your heart toward those who have wounded you.

Grace and Peace
