How many times have we sinned? Is it safe to say we're in the hundreds, thousands, ten-thousands, hundred-thousands,millions? When I thought about this question the other night I thought about how many times my Savior has forgiven me, now in Matthew 18:22 He says "I do not say to you seven times, but seventy times seven." For those of you who don't feel like doing that in your head (me) that's 490 times. Isn't it safe to say that He has forgiven us more than that and obviously even more. And while His forgiveness never ends there is a point where He says OK come on, I've forgiven you for this same sin thousands of times its time you gave it up and followed Me. And at some point we all need to do that. Not to say that we can be perfect and never sin but we can choose to do a lot better, if its not for Santa than for Him right? Like I said in my last blog I think we make the path too narrow. We can make this easier and He will be willing to forgive us of everything if we try. And that trying is really worth it when it gets us to Heaven.
