Understanding that your sins are forgiven goes beyond feelings. We need to depend on God’s Word and His promises of forgiveness. We learn to overcome doubts of our forgiveness by looking at the facts in scripture, choosing in faith to believe that God is faithful and true, and then allow our emotions to catch up.
“But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness.”
1 John 1:9 NLT

Our faith statement for today is: when I have confessed my sins, I know that God is faithful to forgive me.
