Without an exception we all commit sin against God and fellow human beings. The moment we realize that we have offended God, it is our duty to immediately ask pardon, for He is so full of mercy and kindness. Only by receiving His forgiveness we may be able to enjoy peace and joy in our daily lives. Let us hold fast to the promise of God’s cleansing revealed through Prophet Jeremiah: “I will cleanse them from all the sin they have committed against me and will forgive all their sins of rebellion against me” (Jer 33:8). May we believe in the all-forgiving love of God, and submit ourselves for the cleansing that is necessary.

Abba, thank You for forgiving our sins that we have committed. Let Your Spirit bring us close to You for Your cleansing, every day. In Jesus’ Most Merciful Name, Amen.
