"So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed." -John 8:36 (NIV)
Whether it is human nature, genetics, or learned behavior, it can be hard for me to let things go. I can think about things long after the fact, thinking about what I could have done, should have done, or would do differently. When I get stuck thinking about mistakes and wrong doing, am I free from my past?
While Jesus was on Earth, He reminded us that He, the Son, came to set all of us free. We should learn from our mistakes, but we shouldn't be tortured by them. Once we have accepted forgiveness through Jesus' sacrifice for us, we are FREE! The torture of sin has been taken away. We do not have to worry about the mistakes we have made. We can live a new, free life in Him!
Don't be tortured by your past. Accept forgiveness and be free in Jesus!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for forgiving my sins and past mistakes. Thank You for wiping the slate clean and allowing me to start afresh. Please help me to trust in You and let go of the past so that I can live freely in You and for You. Through Your Son, Jesus, the one who died to set me free, amen.
