Romans 4 - Forgiven

This chapter of Romans is about Faith, however the verses that jumped off the page at me was verses 7-8, Blessed are they whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord will never count against him

How brilliant is it that, God not only forgives our sin, but also doesn't count them against us. We are completely forgiven. Through the cross our sin is covered. We can be assured that when we repent we are completely set free from that sin. God doesn't keep account, all of our sin is wiped from the book. We are clean. 

We can be assured that even though we fall short of the Glory of God, we are forgiven through the blood of Christ. PRAISE GOD!
