“As far as the east is from the west, so far hath He removed our transgressions from us” (Psalm 103:12).
One of the things mentioned in the list that God (supposedly) does not care about was what we have done in the past. We have all done things in the past that we know were wrong, yet there is nothing we can do to correct those wrong things now. Sometimes the memory of those things is painful.
However, for us who know the Lord Jesus Christ as our Savior, we can be assured that all those sins are gone. They are under the shelter of the blood of Christ, and as our verse today says, God has removed them as far as the east is from the west. Another verse says that God will “cast all their sins into the depths of the sea” (Micah 7:19). We will never see them again, and God will never bring them up again, to judge us for them. What a wonderful salvation we have!
