Whiteboard

Lord, I am so glad that you don’t use a whiteboard to list my sins. I can never get a whiteboard totally clean. I have observed with a lot of use something happens. The marks have a way of never getting totally erased. As the whiteboard gets old, there is a chance the eraser can’t get the job done. And if I bear down on the marker the harder it is to erase it!

Don’t you just feel like taking that marker and writing down my sin as hard as you can? How frustrating I must be to you. But how amazing is your love that you want to wash me whiter than snow, or as white as a new whiteboard! My sins are totally taken away when I tell you about them. But don’t you tire from constantly erasing my whiteboard. You must have the eraser in your hand and never put it down. It is hard to believe what you’ve promised? My promises are so weak. (Reflections from Psalm 51:7)
