Do Overs and Fresh Starts!

1/2/2017

“'He himself bore our sins' in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; 'by his wounds you have been healed.'” -I Peter 2:24 (NIV)
There are times in our lives when we might like a "do over."  If we could wipe the slate clean and start again, we may do things differently in order to end with a different result.  While we don't have many opportunities for "do overs" in life, we can learn from our past and turn to God for a fresh start!

God offers us the opportunity to have a fresh start by leaving our sin behind and living for righteousness.  While people in our lives may need to see our actions to be convinced of a fresh start in our lives, we can begin the process by asking God to cleanse us from sin and to spiritually heal us.  As God heals us, we should commit to learning about and from Him and applying His lessons to our lives.  We may not get "do overs, but we can live as new and fresh beings free from the chains of sin!

Don't worry about a "do over" and instead focus on a fresh start in His forgiveness!

Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for giving me forgiveness.  Help me to live so that others can know of my fresh start through You.  In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
