Hebrews 10:18 - 39
Jesus' sacrifice covers our sins. The ones in the past, the ones in the present and the ones in the future.
I stumble sometimes, but this reminds me that Jesus settled my debt i.e. death (Romans 6:23)and I can approach my Father in heaven as I ask for forgiveness. His sacrifice is so great that I receive clean hands, a pure heart and be in the presence of God (check out Psalm 24). That blows my mind away. He's so holy, and I'm really not. But with Jesus as my high priest, I am made holy, and I can fellowship with God (Hebrews 10:10)
Be encouraged that regardless of how many times you fall, God will not forsake you. Be faithful in believing that to be true! Refrain from succumbing to temptation, knowing that 1 Corinthians 10:13 (memory verse from GIC!) is true. Hold onto God's promise of finishing His good work in you (Hebrews 12:2).
Know also that we persevere together. I'm grateful that we can share our struggles and love one another in hc, in sp, in eg, in gic, in...wherever or whenever we meet together.
Have a hope-filled Canadian Remembrance Day!
God is in it with each and every one of us and we are also in this together. Keep on training and racing.

yeah this was a great reminder. both in confessing my sins regularly and knowing that His blood is great enough to cleanse me of all my sins and also reminding me to not judge other believers who have also received total forgiveness.
that's what is so amazing about grace.
