Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, Whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man to whom the LORD does not impute iniquity…
Psalm 32:1-2

Some have more. Some have less. But everyone has problems.

Some problems are bigger. Some problems are smaller. But everyone has problems.

The great equalizer for those who are born of the Spirit and who trust in Christ for salvation, is that our transgressions are forgiven. Our sins are forgiven. Instead of iniquity, God has imputed the righteousness of Christ to our spiritual accounts.

Compared with that incredibly good news, our problems—regardless of their frequency or size—are manageable. Our problems are still problems. Pain still hurts. Fear is still fearful. But when we understand something of God’s amazing grace and the immeasurable gift of forgiveness and imputed righteousness, we can handle anything. Problems, after all, are temporary. Forgiveness and salvation are eternal.

Let us meditate more on God and on His grace, than on our problems. It will not make all our problems disappear, but it will give us victory in spite of them.
