Leftover
Scars
When we come to Jesus Christ, He totally forgives our sins.
He wipes out our past, and gives a brand new start. But sometimes, the results
of our wrong choices remain. If we were practicing premarital sex and got
pregnant or caught a disease, that bay or that condition will not just go away.
Even though you’ve been forgiven, and your wrongs are forgotten, scars still
remain that you have to deal with.
The good thing is that Jesus is so faithful, and He accepts
you scars and all. He will patiently help you put your life back together. He
helps you find healing for the pain of guilt, and gives you confidence to live a
bold new life in Him.
The bible calls you a new creature. This happens the moment
you receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior. But in order to experience it, you
have to consistently trust and obey the Word of God.
Do not be discouraged by leftover scars. Your key to a
victorious life started when you surrendered your life to Him. And nothing that
you did before that time can stop you. So keep making the HookUp, and God will
bring something beautiful out of all your mistakes.
