The Love of God Forgets

The Love of God Forgets
 

I dreamed I went to heaven
I stood before your throne
Angels singing around me
Your Son welcomes me home
You yourself spoke to me saying a job well done
Father I said, you say a job well done but all I’ve done is sinned
God spoke with such authority that even the angels stopped and listened
Son, He said, I don’t remember that
Do you remember the time I stole from the store, I said
He shook his head and said no
Don’t you remember all the times I lied to my mom and how much I hurt her
God just shook His head no
Don’t you remember the times I cursed, drank, smoke, and did drugs
What about the times I looked at pornography, turned my back on you,
The times that I fought with my wife and the times I did not tithe
God with a smile just shook His head no and said I don’t remember those things
What about the time…..
God holds up His hand and says I don’t remember those things
I do remember the times you would give all you had to help someone in need
I remember your caring heart, how you would go out of your way to brighten ones day
I remember the love you had for me and the way you served
I remember the lives that you led to the Lord 
 Your faithfulness in church, and how you allowed others to see me in you
But Lord how can you remember these things and not of those I mentioned
I remember my Son dying on the cross as a living sacrifice for your sins
I remember you giving your life to Him
 My Son paid for all and your debt was cleared
Tears filled my eyes as I awoke
How many people do I hold their debts against them
Each day I wake up I need to forgive the debts and remember they were paid in FULL

 
  “As far as the east is from the west,
so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.”

Psalms 103:12

The Lord Turned, and Looked Upon Peter

The Lord Turned, and Looked Upon Peter

Luke 22:60-62


The Lord said to Peter, before the cock crews on the third day thou wilt deny me

Not I said Peter I would never deny you

But yet everyday 24/7 Peter denies Jesus

He denies Jesus when we cheat, steal, and lie

When he sleeps with another guy

He denies Jesus when it’s the prostitute he lusts for

Or its porn he adores

He denies Jesus when he kills

Or when he chooses not to do God’s will

He denies Jesus when he drinks, smokes, and uses drugs

Or when he hangs out with murders, whoremongers, and thugs

He denies Jesus with gossip and slander

Or when he covets the stuff of his neighbor

He denies Jesus when he gambles and parties

He denies Jesus when he forgets the Sabbath

Or when he doesn’t read his bible and pray

He denies Jesus when he refuses to help those in need

Like the homeless he does not feed

He denies Jesus with his heart

He denies Jesus in our talk

He denies Jesus when he refuses to witness or go to church

Or when he doesn’t support the church and his Pastor

He denies Jesus when he doesn’t pay his tithe

When he refuse to accept Jesus as our Savior

We are Peter

We promise not to deny the Lord but we do it any way

Will you choose to continue to be a Peter

And deny the one who died for you
