How can we TRUST the heart of God?
Sin - our wrongdoing - is like catalytic events that produce damage far away from the initial event.
Sin grieves the heart of God.
2 Samuel 11
In God's Word, we see harsh words about sin paired with beautiful words of love and forgiveness.
Sin is serious. But even more serious is the grace and love of God.
If we trust God's heart towards sin, we have to trust God's heart for the sinner (us) as well.
Daniel 9:4
Romans 3:23-24
Romans 6:23
Romans 2 - the kindness of God leads us to repentance.
