so what

I don't want to minimize sin, but some people will never let a thing go.  They suffer for years over something that they have asked for forgiveness for many times- as though God might grant forgiveness if we keep pestering him.

You only have to ask for forgiveness once.

 A long time friend thanked me for something.  He said that at a time when he shared his deepest hurts, his biggest sins, I said, "so what."

What have you done?  What evil secrets are in your past?  Go to our Father, ask for forgiveness, then let them go.  You did a bad thing?  So what.  You are forgiven.

Accept the simple gift that God actually does forgive you and he separates us from our sins as far as the east is from the west.

God is good, all the time.  Bad things?  So what.  God is with us and God is for us.  If God is for us, then who can be against us?

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
