Immediately, Freely, Entirely, and Forever- I don’t have to look up these words to know their meaning. These are simple adverbs describing an action. Yet, if I think of them in terms of the action God does for me, they hold special meaning. When I ask for forgiveness, God forgives immediately. He forgives freely, He forgives entirely. He forgives forever.
Although I may repeat my request for forgiveness of the same sin , I don't have to do that. I already have His mercy. I just need to let go of my guilt and regret and cling to His promise found in Proverbs 28:13b “But whoso confesseth and forsaketh them (sins) shall have mercy.”
