Our Lord is
always faithful and does not lie to us,
popematthew . We humans are the ones who have our moments or seasons of unfaithfulness. When you become a member of our Lord's family, your past is simply your past. You are now a new person, imperfect perhaps, but a new person. What areas require correcting in your life, our Lord will work with you to accomplish a stronger, less fearful you. These changes do not always occur instantly.
As a parent, I tell you this: Quit beating yourself up for whatever shortcomings you may see in yourself. Stand up straight, and focus your attention on our Lord. Read & study Scripture, and embrace fully within your heart the fact that our Lord loves and cherishes you dearly.
Be blessed!
Angel, you are such a blessing to each of us! Thank you for being a member of our Lord's family ...and for being a member of our CFnet family!
