Scripture reference: Hebrews 8:12 (ESV)
Today, I want you to know how God sees you as clean.
This idea reminds me of the scripture about Jesus washing the feet of his disciples. When Jesus moved to wash Peter’s feet, Peter said, “Lord you will never wash my feet.” Yet, Jesus replied, “If I don’t wash you, you won’t belong to me.”
Peter quickly responded, “Well then, Lord, wash my hands and head as well!” Jesus answered Peter by saying, “You are clean, Peter…”
Here’s what’s significant about the exchange between Peter and Christ. Shortly after Jesus told Peter he was clean, Peter denied him three times.
Jesus knew that Peter would betray him, yet he still claimed Peter as clean.
There are times you may fall short, or just sin outright. The good news is that you’re still clean. The next time your mind needs to reconcile that thought, remember these words: “For I will be merciful toward their iniquities, and I will remember their sins no more.” Hebrews 8:12 (ESV)
This has been your B Moment. Your moment to be still…to be fed by the Word of God…to be grateful.
