Ron: In the Lord’s Prayer, Jesus taught us to seek forgiveness for our debts but even then, do you sometimes feel indebted?
Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.
Ron: Recently, a newly remarried couple poured out their heart to me. Even though it was the sin of their previous spouses that caused their divorces—they still felt dirty before the Lord. You know, shame, it’s really hard to shake sometimes.
When you get stuck there pray this prayer: “Lord, may we feel the warmth of your love and acceptance. If we feel shame for past sin, let it be washed away by your grace. Let us stand confidently in your mercy, not feeling second-class or unworthy, but forgiven.”
For FamilyLife Blended, I’m Ron Deal.
