"Your sin does not disqualify you from your importance with what you are doing in life"
This was a powerful message. This past week I realized that when I am hurt or angry at someone I do not do things to hurt them, I do things to hurt myself. Which in turn. Hurts others because I am not at my best. I had a lot of let down and hurt the last two weeks, by people that I care about and give my all too and instead of learning from it and moving forward I dwelled on it and did stuff that was not right. Things I regret doing and let myself down. Things I am embarrassed of. Things I pray for forgiveness for. This message was just what I needed to learn that I am not defined by my actions.
"God can use your mistakes to enourage someone else with grace"
That is exactly what I want to do with this blog series. Do not believe the common lies that we tend to tell outsells that leave us to or out of sin. Instead, believe the 3 truths that will lead us to another chance!!
"1. God often rescues us from the pit and not the platform
2. God does not need ability, he needs availability
3. Gods Grace is at its best when second-chance recievers become second-chance givers."
Our Greatest enemy in faith is fear. Fear that keeps us from moving forward. Fear that brings us to the pit. If you read through the bible you see so many examples of Jesus helping others when they are in their pit. You do not see him helping those who are doing well, and succeeding. Its the ones that ask him to become a water walker, the ones that can not see, the ones who have murdered, or betrayed. He does not need us to bring that grace ourselves. We do not even have to be open to it- he just needs us to believe in him and he will do the rest! That is the best part! He takes care of it all for us! As we learned last week. Open heart and open hands. With those open hands we can share our struggles and our pits and help others learn from them and help them rise from their darkness together.
"what we did, is not who we are"
God- my dreams are available to you!
Love ya,
