Today’s Scripture

For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee. In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer. For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee. For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee.

Isaiah 54:7-10

Today’s Thought

God’s not soft on sin, not at all. But just remember, God already took all His anger regarding sin out on Jesus. God has mercy on us because He took His wrath out on Jesus.

Today’s Confessio

Jesus, thank you for taking my sin on the cross and being a substitute for me. Thank you for your continual mercy and for reminding me than when I fall short, you are there to forgive me. Thank you, Jesus, for your sacrifice and taking on the mistakes of yesterday, today, and forever.
