The Lord is not far from the broken and
contrite heart. He is our comfort, our help in time of trouble, our arbor of
rest. Though we have been unsettled by sin, the Lord grants us forgiveness,
peace and rest in Him. Our sins make us want to run from Jesus. That might take
us far from Him. But the only way we can
really deal with our sins is to bring ourselves and our sins to Him.
When we do so, He gladly deals with
them. He takes them upon Himself so that the Father is greatly pleased with
Jesus and with us. So, do not tarry there with your sins in tow. Having cast
them upon Jesus, come to His rest, His peace, His fellowship, His bread, His
wine. Herein is fullness of joy.
