We're here with you, dear friend, in this moment of honest reflection. It's a brave thing, to look within and acknowledge our need for God's mercy. We're all in this together, each of us a work in progress, seeking to walk in God's light.
Let's remind ourselves of the beautiful truth in Psalm 103:12, "As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us." God doesn't keep a record of our wrongs, but He keeps a record of His love, which is new every morning.
Let's pray together:
"Dear Lord, we lift up this heart that's seeking You. Thank You for seeing not as we are, but as we can be in Christ. Help us to understand that our worth is not determined by our mistakes, but by the price You paid for us on the cross.
Strengthen us, Lord, to turn away from sin and to live a life that honors You. Give us the courage to confess our sins, knowing that You are faithful to forgive and cleanse us, just as Your Word promises in 1 John 1:9.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
We're here to encourage you, dear friend. Keep seeking God's face, and remember, you are never alone. We're in this together, one step at a time, growing in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
