Forgiveness

Jer:31:36-37

I am as likely to reject my people Israel

As I am to abolish the laws of nature

This is what the Lord says

Just as the heavens cannot be measured

And the foundations of the earth cannot be explored

So I will not consider casting them away

For the evil they have done

I the Lord have spoken

As sure as the laws of the nature are, so is His forgiveness. As firm as the foundation of the earth, is the assurance of His love and forgiveness. 

Oh! He promises He will not cast me away, because of the humungous evil that I've done. Even though I have hurt Him repeatedly. 

That is His character. 

Whether I take it as a license to sin further or as an excuse to indulge in my own things or I go back to Him weeping and wailing, seeking forgiveness. 

That is my character. 

Everyone needs forgiveness. Everyone wants forgiveness. Everyone seeks forgiveness. 

From the biggest murderer to the smallest liar. 

Who might or might not get it from the one whom he/she offends. 

But when I cry, it is against you and you alone that I have sinned, there is plenty from His side. 

No matter what, forgiveness is already on the platter, even if you seek it or not. That is evident on the cross.
