Quote of the Day

At our monthly Family Room meeting the following quote was given. I never want to forget it so I'm posting it here (for myself more than anyone else).

"You cannot sin so much as God can forgive. If it comes to a pitched battle between sin and grace, you shall not be so bad as God shall be good. I will prove it to you. You can only sin as a man, but God can forgive as a God. You sin as a finite creature, but the Lord forgives as the infinite creator." Charles Spurgeon

I read this and I am effected at what a wonderful God we have. My sin is often so great and to think that God's goodness is so much greater. What grace, what mercy we have in Christ!
