The verse for today

Romans 5:20 (NIV) 20 The law was brought in so that the trespass might increase. But where sin increased, grace increased all the more.

Have you ever felt like you've made a mistake that's too big for God to forgive? Maybe you're feeling discouraged or ashamed of something you've done, and you think that there's no way God could ever love you again.

But I have some good news for you today. The verse for today, Romans 5:20 (NIV), reminds us that God's grace is bigger than any mistake or sin we could ever commit. The law was brought in so that the trespass might increase, but where sin increased, grace increased all the more.

That's right - no matter what you've done, God's grace is sufficient for you. His love for you is unconditional, and he's always ready to welcome you back into his loving arms. All you have to do is turn to him and ask for his forgiveness.

But I know that can be easier said than done. It can be hard to confront our mistakes and ask for forgiveness, especially when we feel like we've let God down. But it's important to remember that God already knows everything about us, and he still loves us just as we are.

When we turn to God and ask for his forgiveness, we're not just asking for a quick fix or a simple solution. We're asking for a new beginning, a fresh start, a chance to live in the freedom that comes from knowing God. And when we receive his forgiveness, we're able to let go of the guilt, shame, and discouragement that has been holding us back.

So if you're feeling discouraged or ashamed of something you've done, I encourage you to turn to God and ask for his forgiveness. He loves you just as you are, and he's ready to welcome you back into his loving arms. Just take a moment to pray with me:

Let us pray:

Heavenly Father, thank you for your amazing grace that covers all our sins. Help us to remember that no matter what we've done, your love for us never changes. Give us the courage to come to you and ask for your forgiveness, and help us to live in the freedom that comes from knowing you. In Jesus' name, amen.

God's grace is bigger than any mistake or sin we could ever commit. No matter what we're going through, God's grace is sufficient for us, and His love for us never changes. So don't give up hope, my friend. Turn to God and ask for His forgiveness, and live in the freedom that comes from knowing him.

May you be filled with His strength, His peace, and His joy today and always.

In Christ,

Pastor Ras
