An ocean reminder

I have always loved the ocean! Every time I go it brings such delight to my soul. My love for the ocean must be one reason that I write so many songs about it.

As I was thinking of the ocean today the song Ocean Floor by Audio Adrenaline came to mind. It is a beautiful reminder that when we have asked God to forgive us with a sincere heart He does and remembers our sin no longer!

Just because God will forgive doesn't mean we can go and do what we want and then come to Him again asking forgiveness.  That is habitual sin and is explained here:

 6 No one who abides in him keeps on sinning; no one who keeps on sinning has either seen him or known him. 7 Little children, let no one deceive you. Whoever practices righteousness is righteous, as he is righteous. 8 Whoever makes a practice of sinning is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil. 9 No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God's[b] seed abides in him; and he cannot keep on sinning, because he has been born of God. 10 By this it is evident who are the children of God, and who are the children of the devil: whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is the one who does not love his brother. 1 John 3:6-10

When we ask Jesus into our heart and repent of our sin repentance means we turn around. We don't walk in sin any longer. Sure, we as Christians will mess up from time to time, but we strive to walk in righteousness and that is what our Father desires.

I pray that today's song reminds you that when you come to Jesus He does take away your sins and gives you new life. Maybe the next time you go to the ocean or see a picture of it this truth will make you smile.
Be blessed, beloveds!

Who is a God like You, who forgives wickedness
And passes over the rebellious acts of the remnant of His possession?
He does not retain His anger forever,
Because He [constantly] delights in mercy and lovingkindness.
19 

He shall again have compassion on us;
He will subdue and tread underfoot our wickedness [destroying sin’s power].
Yes, You will cast all our sins
Into the depths of the sea.

Micah 7:18-19
