No More Guilt and Shame

Get rid of guilt and condemnation today. Don’t go around feeling bad about yourself. Realize that God loves you and walk in His goodness today.

I don’t think making excuses for our issues, mistakes and our past is the right thing to do, but neither is being in guilt and regret all the time.  Walking around with guilt and shame is a terrible way to live. In fact, it is not really living at all.  We don’t make excuses or try to condone what we have done, but we ask for forgiveness, make things right, learn from it and then grow from it.  Understand that we all have a past and there are things that we wished we had done differently, but there is no going back now, only going forward.  Let’s learn from our past and use it to move us toward our destiny.  Your best days are yet ahead, no matter what anyone tells you.  Keep your head up and never lose hope.
