We respond to sin with quick repentance!


     If you’re experiencing a setback, if you’ve found yourself in sin, I tell you not to worry.  We were all born into sin.  It’s natural to us.  God knows all of our sins, even the ones we haven’t committed yet.  It’s our response to our sins that’s important.  As a Christian we are going to feel convicted after we commit a sin.  It doesn’t feel good, but it’s a good thing because it shows us that we are sorry for our wrong actions.  Don’t let Satan make you feel like you are a bad person and that you can no longer worship Jesus.  It’s the exact opposite.  It’s in these times that we cling to Jesus Christ and ask for His forgiveness and repent of the sin we committed, meaning we sincerely will try not to commit the sin again.  We stand firm in our faith and show others that even though we struggle and fall short and make mistakes, we move forward.  We can actually help others and show others the power of Jesus Christ by admitting our faults and shortcomings and then moving forward in love of Jesus Christ.  There's no other way to do this than through Jesus Christ.


     I know many people who struggle with sin, whether they admit it or not, and are not truly happy with life and do not have peace in life.  I believe part of it is because they don't know or haven't experienced the power of Jesus Christ.  When you know Jesus Christ and have truly experienced His Grace you'll be able to transcend ANYTHING that comes against you.  You'll be able to make a quick recovery from setbacks.  You will command a strength and a confidence you've never experienced before and once you have it, it never goes away!
