Sinking deep

I was listening to Sinking deep by hillsong today during class. And I just started thinking about numerous things that we are sinking deeper and deeper until we find the love of Jesus and realize the depth of our sin. It is a mighty price we should have to pay and it really weighs down on our shoulders, but the king of all kings loved us so much that He said it didn't/doesn't matter our past as long as we commit ourselves to Him now and live a life for Him. He told us that He will not bring our past against as, but will love us in the now. And slowly that love will just wash over us and cleanse us and make us new. It's over! Lord you have cleaned me. I just think about how sometimes when I am on the farm like driving the gator I get covered in dirt head to toe. Well I have to shower and it takes time to get all cleaned up and sometimes a couple of days to get it all out of my hair. This is kind of like that. It doesn't happen instantly because we have to learn that our sin is bad and that we don't want to sin. And sometimes we might fall again before we are completely clean. Each sin has to be cleaned from our bodies. Don't forget we do fall, but it gets easier. We are not perfect but we have a perfect king. He is righteous and powerful. And He is washing us as we pray, study the word, worship Him and serve Him. He is on our side and working for us and we are working for Him. He is cleaning us and making us new.
