Easter: Hope RenewedSample
Starting Over
Life can bring times where our past causes us to feel far from God. Everyone has done things they are ashamed of and we all fall short of God’s holiness. Only Jesus can take our past mistakes and make us clean again. It is powerful to know the extent to which Jesus forgives. Christian Songwriter Jordan Feliz shares insights on experiencing mercy. He does this as he talks about his song “The River”.
Listen to Jordan |
Jesus can handle whatever past you have and can bring you into God’s glory. Jordan Feliz talks about experiencing God’s mercy on a daily basis. Forgiveness that comes through Jesus is available no matter what we have done. John 7:38 says there will be “living water” flowing inside us. There is joy knowing that we are new creations through Christ. Our past no longer holds us back from praising and glorifying God.
