Summary
As we near the end of our week, creating space every day to simply have our affections stirred up for God, we're going to take time today to look at God's heart to forgive us. God's forgiveness is as constant as our need for his forgiveness. And today, I hope and pray that he reveals his heart to forgive us completely and immediately when we confess our sin to him, and his heart to constantly restore us to intimacy with him.
Our Scripture for today comes from 1 John 1:9, and today's worship is Kyrie Eleison by Vineyard Worship.
