| EAST FROM THE WEST 12 As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us. Psalms 103:12 (KJV) As I meditated on this scripture I wondered, "How for is the east from the west?" The distance is immeasurable. I love the fact that God used east and west to describe the distance put between us and our sin. If you were to take off in an airplane and set a course for true North, you would eventually change courses to true South. After you passed the North Pole, you would be traveling south. The North Pole is the place north and south meet. The unique thing about east and west is that they never meet. If you set a course for true east, you could travel an infinite distance and never be traveling west. When God separates you from sin, you will never see it again. Don't make the mistake of looking for it. I love the fact that God used east and west to describe the distance put between us and our sin.
