Forgiving Ourselves: Part 4 of 5 in the Series "Forgiveness"

We cannot go into the past and correct our mistakes, but we can learn from them

2 Corinthians 5:17---Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!

• God desires us to be free from past guilt 
• When Jesus died on the cross all of our sins died with him 
• It doesn’t matter what we may have done when we repented and asked for forgiveness it was granted

Colossians 1:21-22 ---Once you were alienated from God and were enemies in your minds because of your evil behavior.  But now he has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death to present you holy in God’s sight, without blemish and free from accusation.

What does self forgiveness look like

1. Accepting ourselves as a human who has faults and makes mistakes
2. Letting go of self-anger for our past failures, errors and mistakes
3. Loving ourselves
