WEEK
8 - Day 6
Forgiving love
in the battle against evil
Introduction
To
know and experience forgiveness, the experience of God's unconditional
and accepting love for us, can make us "immune" to the many attacks of
the evil one. The power of darkness can no longer touch us in the
heart of our self-esteem when we do not reject ourselves as sinner.
But when we know ourselves as loved and accepted, we receive renewed strength
to take on freely all that we are capable of in the battle against evil
and darkness. To the accepted sinner Jesus has this word :"Sin no
more" (John 5:14).
