The best Eraser

What is memory? something that enables us to recall past feelings, sights, sounds and experiences.

We do know that memories can be blessings, full of comfort, assurance, and joy if we have stored up memories of purity, faith, fellowship and love. If a saint looks back on a life of Christian service and remembers the faithfulness of Him who promised; “I never leave you nor forsake you” Heb 13:15, his or her sunset years can be the sweetest of all.

But memories can also be a curse and a termentor. Many people as they approach the end of life would give all they process to erase from their minds the past sins that haunt them. What can a person do who is plagued by such remembrances? Just one thing. He can take them to the One who said “Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more” Heb 10:17

You may not be able to forget your past. But the Lord offers to blot out, “like a thick cloud, your transgession” Isa 44:22.

The best eraser is honest confession to God
