When you think your sin is too great for God to forgive, you are telling Him that forgiving you is impossible for Him. And is there anything too hard for God? God can forgive you of your sins because all things are possible for Him. Just submit to Him, confess your sins and asked to be washed in the blood of the Lamb. God is just and merciful. Go to Him today. Tomorrow may be too late.

An Apology to the End and the Beginning
Let me start by saying I do not hate you. I’m a brat use to you giving everything in my hand as you always have, and now I feel that all the “fuck you’s” and “why do you hate me?” Come from that. Coming from someone who wouldn’t bat an eye at trouble to now being scared because the noise I’m hearing might not actually be there, that I don’t know how I even got here because I thought my genuflect’s would have me self reflecting on my wrong’s so I could do right by You, but now I’m praying that my mind not take control and imprison me in my own body, I’m praying that today isn’t my last day because if it is damnation is what is waiting for me, I’m praying that I no longer continue cursing You like my problems have been made by your hand when in reality they’re all created by mine own.
I miss being a kid, I reminisce about VHS tapes and waiting on the rewind hoping I could do the same with my life. I miss being able to stay up all night knowing the only thing that was waiting for me was summer’s day and summer’s night filled with inappropriate jokes and love from my best friend. I miss that when I missed out on an opportunity it resulted in a bad grade and not anxiety. I miss when laughs felt effortless and tomorrow wasn’t thought about like today was ending. I miss when 24 hours felt like seconds and now the seconds are all I count. I miss that when I said “I love you” it came from the bottom of my heart but now I feel that it comes from repercussions. I miss You the most when my stress turns me into a vegetable of fear because tomorrow feels like its the end of today and yesterday is missed like tomorrows coming.
This apology comes from my heart because my honesty is shaped like dragon’s teeth and my speech now fiery because I live in my own damnation created by my own hand and yet I continue to blame You like I am blameless and I don’t know how to stop. I am sorry, LORD.

Forgiveness does not have to be given upon asking. Forgiveness should be given without asking. Forgive them all, without them asking... and free yourself...

My New Self
Ephesians 4:22-24  (NIV)
22 You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires;23 to be made new in the attitude of your minds;24 and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
I would like to think that I have seen the last of my old self. She was prone to anger, desirous of worldly pleasures, anything but holy. 
But in the midst of a chaotic and stressful day last week, the old Kira returned. That’s right, I acted in a way that bore no resemblance to the Christian woman I have become.
I could feel it happening. My blood pressure rose, I developed tunnel vision, felt attacked, became indignant, and finally let it all loose by screaming at my daughter, in response to her temporary and unintentionally inconsiderate behavior.
Almost immediately, I realized what I had done. I was not proud. In fact, I was horrified.The process of surrendering my life to God, discerning what is right, and trying to become more like Christ had, I thought, permanently removed my anger “chip”. I apologized to my daughter repeatedly and tearfully, but I think she was shell-shocked. She too had believed that anger had no foothold in my new, Christian self. 
This experience was painful and extremely humbling. I was so ashamed. But I was also afraid. What was happening to me? How could this vitriol rear its ugly head after years of dormancy?
It took me several days to process what happened, come to terms with it, and find peace. What I took away was this:
1) I had not been reading my bible on a daily basis. Even a morning devotional always sets the tone for my day. Without the Word, I feel unprotected. With it, my priorities are straight, my mood is loving, my burden light and my armor strong.
2) Satan is alive and well. And he wants nothing more than to keep me, and you, and every Christian, away from the light of God’s love. If he senses a weakness - if you are somehow triggered, off-kilter, or have your guard down, he is ready to pounce. And OH the glory he gains when we falter. Once we understand this truth, we can be vigilant and armed against his attacks. We can walk in God’s love, mindfully, every moment of every day. And we can expel Satan out of our minds and hearts with the authority of the Holy Spirit. I actually do this out loud. (Don’t worry; I live alone.)
3) For me, salvation did not come until later in life. Those old traits and habits took decades to form, and became part of my personality. To be honest, I’m surprised I haven’t had more than one regression into anger. When I think about all of the ways in which God has changed me - I no longer need a man to be happy; I no longer seek or allow sinful relationships in my life; I rarely drink alcohol; I am always aware of people who might need prayer or other help and I give it freely; I admit my sins, ask for redemption and do better - my transformation, in its entirety, has been healing and miraculous.
We all slip up. Whether you’re a lifelong Christian, or new to the idea of salvation, you are going to make missteps. The good news is that we are already forgiven. Does this mean that we are free to sin and treat people poorly at our whim? No. But cut yourself some slack. Don’t let a setback discourage you completely. We are, after all, human. Even the most devout Christian is imperfect by nature.Christ took on the burden of our sin. Accept your place in His kingdom and with it, His forgiveness.

0% PERFECT
Far from being perfect, far from being a saint.
Stomped on. Thrown. Despised.
Used. Left behind. Hated.
Impure. Filthy. Undeserving.
But his love never ceases. His love never lessens. His love is untouchable. His love is unaffected. His love for us is far more greater than our imperfections.
Found rest in Christ the Lord.
0% PERFECT.
100% FORGIVEN.
We just need to trust in him.
We are not perfect, we make mistakes, we sin.
He has not come for the righteous but for the sinners.

8 Months Sober!
I can't believe it's already been 8 months and I can't believe I've made it this far. I never thought I could make it a week when I was using. Not only am I sober, but I'm recovering and I'm the happiest I've been in a long time. Sobriety is more than being clean. Its having a clear mind. It's realizing how much of a blessing it is to be alive today. Not just to be alive, but also to live life abundantly and know that I don't need drugs or alcohol to get me through the day anymore. It's being grateful even on the worst days that I have people who love me and a roof over my head, a bed to sleep in and food in the fridge, that I have a new sense of self worth. It's bettering myself for no one but me and my future and truly believing that I am worth it. It's being able to say, "I deserve better." And actually mean it. I thank God for my sobriety every day and for all the blessings he continues to shower on me. I'll just keep living one day at a time but know I'm coming for that 1 year milestone baby 👆

❤️💙💛 Couldn’t agree more! @judyhehr ・・・ 𝑾𝒊𝒔𝒅𝒐𝒎 𝑾𝒆𝒅𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒅𝒂𝒚'𝒔 Don’t settle You deserve better..💕💕 Looking back I realize that I was so willing to settle for so much less than what God wanted to give me. He is a mighty God and today I ask for mighty things, not because of who I am but because of who He is. Today I pray🙏 that you do not settle because God wants to give better.

Freedom From Past Hurts -  Carrying past, unfinished business is a drain on our emotional and physical being. This burden can include bitterness, hurt, unforgiveness, and revenge. If your life is not flowing freely and with ease, chances are you are carrying around some of this baggage. This video describes a technique to remove this baggage. It was developed by Emmett Fox. Cut the cord to unforgiveness. Peace and freedom are the doorways to happiness. Practice the Law of Forgiveness and give up the need to punish the people that hurt you. Unless you are willing to forgive, how can you be forgiven?

If a thing is free to be good it is also free to be bad. And free will is what has made evil possible. Why, then, did God give them free will? Because free will, though it makes evil possible, is also the only thing that makes possible any love or goodness or joy worth having. —C.S. Lewis #ForgivenAndFree ... #Repost @christomlin

You were accepted and forgiven. You were bought with a high price, the life of our Saviour. You now belong to a royal priesthood, an adopted son and daughter, loved and freed from the bondage of sin. Accept the love of God and love in return!... #forgivenandfree
