So many of us think God is up in Heaven with a giant white board and black marker keeping tally marks of every wrong thing we think and say. We imagine him keeping record of every wrong thing we have done in order to put shame, guilt and condemnation on us. This is so far from the truth of who God is. The Bible tells us God keeps no record of wrongs. He is a loving God that sent his one and only son to die for us. We see this play out when Jesus says, "Father forgive them for they do not know what they are doing" (Luke 23:34). After Jesus was wronged by all of our sins, he still cried out to the father to forgive us. Now we have an example of what keeping no record of wrongs looks like.
