Forget Not All His Benefits

It’s easy to go about our day-to-day lives without paying much thought to the awesome fact that we have been forgiven in Christ. Today, R.C. Sproul recalls the importance of remembering the Lord’s saving mercy in our lives.

I’d like you to just take a moment to do a little reconnaissance in your own personal life, in your own personal pilgrimage. I want you to think back to the first time that you realized that God had forgiven you of all of your sin. And I want you to try to recall what that did for you. The freedom that that brought to your soul, the peace that came to your conscience, the joy that came to your heart. And yet how easy it is to forget what God has done, to forget that He has forgiven us and in Christ has made us clean. David understood that when he wrote in the psalm, “Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits.”
