Cling to the cross though your sins rise up before you like mountains for their size; like the sands on the seashore for their number and glowing like scarlet and crimson, in color!
For no sins, however great, or however numerous should tempt us to despond, or to let go of our hold on the cross seeing the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses from ALL sin. There is a 'buoyancy' in the cross which will never let anyone sink, who clings to it!
If our sins were as ponderous as the globe, or as numerous as all the particles of created matter yet embracing the cross of Jesus they are all forgiven and forgiven forever!
They are all blotted out like the dark clouds, which obscured the sun for a little while on the summer's morning! They are all blotted out like a stone cast from an angel's hand into the depths of ocean! They are all forgiven and forgotten forever!
Cling to the cross!

Isaiah 1:18 ... Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
Colossians 1:14 ... In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
Galatians 6:14 ... But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world. ❤
