You are free

I have a message for someone out there.

Are you feeling the pain of guilt for something you have already been forgiven for?  Let it go.  That guilt does you no service.  If you have confessed this sin to Christ already, it has been forgiven and you are free from it.

If you have not yet confessed it, do so.  For God has promised to be faithful to forgive your confessed sins and cleanse you of unrighteousness (1 John 1:9 – The Christian’s bar of soap).

Bear in mind, that confession to God of your sin and the subsequent forgiveness does not mean you won’t still have to suffer consequences brought on by it.  King David still lost his first born of Bathsheba.  If you have wronged someone, do what you can to reconcile with them.  I’ll leave you with Jesus’ words on this:

“So if you are presenting your gift at the altar and remember there that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there before the altar and first go and be reconciled to your brother. Then come and offer your gift. (Matthew 5:23-24)
