I can't live a full life because I make wrong choices
No matter how hard I try, I can’t do the right thing all the time.
I am crushed by the negative consequences of my choices.
I feel like I’m under a heavy load.
My relationships suffer.
I am frustrated and angry.
But I can't seem to break the cycle of bad choices.
If someone offered to take your load of guilt and shame in exchange for their light load, would you let them?
This is an actual offer that is available for you to accept! You can find forgiveness and freedom in Jesus. He said:
“Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.”
Matthew 11:29-30
Power to change
No matter how often you have regretted your choices, no matter how stuck you feel, and no matter how much hurt you’ve caused, hear this.
With God there is forgiveness.
And...
The power to change is offered to you.
This power is not found inside yourself. We all need to be made new by the One who made us to begin with.
We are forgiven by God when we trust in Jesus Christ. He has gone to great lengths to save us from our wrong choices, or sins.

This can be you:
God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it.
For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.
Ephesians 2: 8-10
Made new
If you are stuck in a cycle of bad choices that are causing hurt to you and others, know that you and your life can be made new.
In this life, the consequences of our choices may not be undone. But we can find complete forgiveness from God, and we can move forward into better things.
