"Let me not be tempted to think my sins are too great to be forgiven... Let me never run away from you but return to you again and again... let me know that you do not reject me as long as I keep asking you to forgive me. Perhaps my doubt in your forgiveness is a greater sin than the sins I consider too great to be forgiven... accept my prayer and let me not run away from you in the night as Judas did."-Henri Nouwen
I borrowed this quote from one of my fb friends profile. If anybody has any information on Henri Nouwen, I would appreciate it if you would share it with me.
Thanks.
I decided to re-post this, because it carries such a powerful message to me. Many times I get to feeling like I'm never going to be good enough, like I'm never going to get it right. It's at these times that I have to remind myself that God is bigger than all my faults and shortcomings.
So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. And because you belong to him, the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death. Rom 8:1,2 NLT
