We have all made mistakes in life. More than that, we have all struggled with and at times been beaten by sin. I know this for a fact. I know this about you and me because God clearly states it in a number of places, but very clearly “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” (Romans 3:23 NASB) The beauty of this verse from Solomon is found in the words, “Now therefore…” God doesn’t quit on us. To be sure, there have been many who have become muddled in sin and quit on God, but He has never and will never quit on us. No matter how deep we slip into sin, He stands ready to forgive and restore. God’s two priorities are reconciliation and redemption. Living that out brings endless joy and hope, and who couldn’t use a bit more of those today. Today, if you need to repent – do it, then get on with learning, growing and truly living. #BeTheEdge
