Atonement

He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world.
1 John 2:2

Do you struggle with feeling guilty? Whether real or imagined, guilt will keep you from living out the fruit of the spirit (love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control).

Most persons can readily recognize and attest, "For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God's glorious standard". Romans 3:23

Putting all things aside, take 10 minutes today, and tomorrow, and the rest of this week, to get alone with God.

Read aloud 1 John 2:2

Ask God, "precious Lord, help me to more fully trust in you, to know in the very depths of my being (mind, body, spirit), that you are who you say you are, that in you, through you, with you, I am set free from guilt and shame."

Know Christ's power, live Christ's pardon, share Christ's peace.
