#26 see through

I had a thought today.

Isn't it funny how we, as imperfect human beings judge so easily, so quickly, and so frequently?

But isn't it also true that we sin so easily, so quickly, and so frequently?

And we serve a God who IS perfection.  Who knows NO sin. Who sees EVERYTHING in us, everything we've done, thought, said, wished, prayed, caused....

So this God, who knows every shameful thing about us, who could so easily point the finger, has chosen to accept and love us regardless.  When we come before him in repentance, he always chooses forgiveness, and then casts our shame into a little thing I like to call "the sea of forgetfulness".

It makes no sense.

We are all too human to fully comprehend it.
