Getting Past Your Failures

Apr 21, 2013    Chris Edmondson    Psalm 38:4, 2 Corinthians 7:10, 1 John 1:9, Philippians 3:4-8, 12-15, 1 Corinthians 15:9-10, 1 Timothy 1:15-16,

Sometimes what holds us back from our past is our own failures in life. Whether it’s something we’ve done that was bad, something we should have done but didn’t, or just not living up to the standards placed upon us—our failures can feel final if we let them.
By looking at the life of Paul the Apostle, we will see that everyone has a past full of failures. But our failures don’t have to define us because God’s grace is bigger than our biggest sins. We can find our identity in Jesus Christ and who we are in Him—a child of God that God can use, even in spite of our darkest past, to do some amazing things for Him!
