Today I will base my forgiveness, redemption, and the healing of my relationship with God on Christ’s sacrifice, not on my sorrow. There is no power in my sorrow; it is only the door to acceptance.

When you look upon me, Lord,
See not my sins but your death.
See not my filthy rags but your robe of righteousness

Hebrews 10:14
For by that one offering he made forever perfect in the sight of God all those whom he is making holy.
The Living Bible

Today I will go to God’s altar empowered by Christ’s atonement, not my sorrow.
