scarlet strengthening

Noticing the scarlet in His creation...

which reminds me of something, the one most important thing.....

"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

That He would wash my scarlet sins white as snow, white as wool!  Amazing!

And I give thanks.  For even in my fever-weakened, flu-ridden state, He has washed me, He is good, His mercies are new every single morning.
