I went to hear a speaker the other day who talked about forgiveness, and thought I should share this story with you all...
He was told this story by someone trying to understand forgiveness after he had told him about Jesus' forgiveness of sin:
'Is forgiveness like this?' the man began, 'Let's say we are a drop of water living on a cloud. Then one day we became heavy with sin and we 'fell'! We fell all the way down and into a puddle of mud. We became so dirty and wished that the dog will come and lick us so we could be clean. But no matter how much the dog licked us, we could not get completely clean. So God made the 'SUN' and He gave us, the raindrop, a way to get closer to the 'Sun'(Son). Is forgiveness like this?'
I was like wow...God's love for us can be seen in the water cycle process!!!
Don't we have a loving God who sent His Son as a way to be closer to Him once again!!??
