| Abundant Pardon By Billy Graham • September 13 “Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, Whose sin is covered.” —Psalm 32:1, NKJV The story is told about a sensitive boy in the eighteenth century who joined the British Army, but when the shots began to fly, he deserted. Years later he became a great astronomer, even discovering a new planet. King George sent for him. He came, fearful the king would order his execution for being a deserter. But he was given an envelope—and inside was a royal pardon. The king said, “Now we can talk, and you shall come up and live at Windsor Castle.” He was Sir William Herschel. Herschel was guilty and deserved condemnation. But King George had mercy on him, and even made him a member of the royal household. This is what God promises us. We are guilty and helpless. But God loves us, and “he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy” (Titus 3:5, NIV). Never forget: “God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved” (John 3:17).  Hope for TodayThe enemy wants us to believe that what we’ve done is beyond the reach of God’s grace, but he’s a liar. Jesus’ blood reaches the darkest corners and flows into the deepest pit. His grace is enough. | ||
