Morning Devotional:
How many times have you sinned today? Do we really want to know the answer to that question? Apparently, someone did – and did the math.
I read yesterday about how the English pastor that penned the hymn, “Rock of Ages” once estimated that by the time a person reached the age of 20, that person had sinned about 630 million times. He also estimated that by the age of 50, the number of sins committed by a single person would rise to one and a half billion. Billion, with a B. I don’t know how the pastor got to that figure but in pondering the problem, I came to the conclusion we all should. However accurate the math, our sins are still too great to count – and yet Jesus took them all to the cross.
Isaiah 53:6 reminds us that God the Father laid all of our sins on Jesus Christ and because Christ carried our sins to the cross in His nail-scarred hands, we can all stand debt free before God, completely forgiven.
