Free From Guilt and Shame

2 Corinthians 5:17
 "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new."

Reflection
 Shame clings to our identity and whispers lies like “I’m not good enough” or “I’m a mistake.” Guilt points to what we’ve done, but shame says it’s who we are. In Christ, both are nailed to the cross. We are not defined by what we did or what happened to us—we are defined by what Jesus did for us. In Him, we are accepted, restored, and made new.

Application
 ➤ Reject the lies of shame and guilt.
 ➤ Embrace your identity as a new creation.
 ➤ Walk confidently in God’s forgiveness and love.

Connection
Thank You, Lord, for removing guilt and shame through Christ. I receive the truth of my new identity and walk forward in Your freedom and grace, from glory to glory. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
