When you come face to face with your failure, it’s far too easy to give up on yourself. To accept the labels and limits and lids that your past might seem to require. I am sinful. I am unfaithful. I am addicted. I am disgraceful. I am unworthy. But in Christ your accusers are gone. And the one whose opinion matters most stands before you, a smile on his face and tenderness in his eyes. He tells you there is hope. There is a future. You can live a different kind of life. You can become the person he meant for you to be.
