--How You Can Start Today With a Clean Slate~~

“Come now, let us reason together, says the LORD:
though your sins are like scarlet,
they shall be as white as snow;
though they are red like crimson,
they shall become like wool.”
--Isaiah 1:18

-Leon Lett was an outstanding defensive lineman who had some amazing statistics in his career with the Dallas Cowboys. Yet, as good as he was, his reputation was tarnished by some pretty egregious mistakes. His most notable came during an icy Thanksgiving Day game against the Miami Dolphins in 1993.

Miami was down by 1 point with just seconds on the clock. They attempted a field goal which was blocked, and all Dallas had to do was stay away from the ball and let the clock run out. But Leon Lett came barreling down the field, slid into the ball, and enabled Miami to recover it and kick another field goal for the win.

I’ll never forget listening to talk radio the next morning. You’d have thought Lett committed the unpardonable sin. Even to this day, when you mention his name to a Cowboys fan, they don’t immediately think about his amazing stats. They think about his notable blunders first.

Many people are like that. They don’t like to forget mistakes. But God is very different. When we bring our mistakes and mess-ups to Him in repentance and faith in Jesus, He wipes the slate clean. Thank God today that if you’re a believer in Jesus Christ, your mistakes are erased and you have a clean slate!-

-COME TO JESUS AND GOD WILL GIVE YOU A CLEAN SLATE FROM THE MISTAKES AND MISHAPS OF YOUR PAST.
