Even though she had deleted the comments and apologized for her poor judgment, Teen Vogue nevertheless rescinded their offer to her for employment. As we move closer to Holy Week and the commemoration of Jesus’ crucifixion and Resurrection, I hope we might enjoy a renewed appreciation for the gift of our faith and the power of cancelled sin. Let’s continue to pray for those who remain locked in the grip of unforgiven acts and ask that they may turn to Him, a Savior who can cancel the one thing we need cancelled most of all – our sin.
