“Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, who sin is covered” (Psalm 32:1).
“I’m a mighty blessed man,” Whitey told me many years ago. Mr. White was a resident of Tri-Cities Baptist Rescue Mission. “I don’t have much goods in this here world, but I know the Lord as my Savior, and I am a mighty blessed man, Pastor. A mighty blessed man.” I’ve thought of Mr. White’s (“Whitey,” as everyone called him) testimony over the years. I suspect that he is now home with the Lord and rejoicing in the wonderful joy of sins forgiven because of his personal trust in the Lord Jesus alone for salvation. Our precious Savior is the only source of forgiveness and salvation. Can you identify with Mr. White’s assessment about being a “mighty blessed man?”
For today: Thank you, Lord, for your wonderful forgiveness. What a wonderful Savior You are!
