Who Is JesusSample

Have you ever gotten into a fight with your brothers or sisters, cousins, or a close friend because they made you angry? I know this has happened to me! Sometimes when I’m mad, I say or do things that aren’t nice. I know it’s wrong, but I do it anyway. 

We’ve all done something at some point in our lives we know is wrong. Maybe it’s because we think it won’t matter that much in the future. Maybe it’s because we don’t think anyone is watching. No matter who you are, where you come from, or what you do, you’re going to make mistakes. It’s just a part of being human! But the good news? We have someone who will forgive us even when we make mistakes. That is Jesus! We are forgiven not because of anything good we have done but because Jesus loves us so much that He was willing to die on the cross for our sins. Isn’t that just amazing?! We can remember that God has our back and will love us no matter what we do. 

The next time you make a mistake, remember this verse. Thank God for forgiving you, and remember that God doesn’t hold any mistake or mess-up against you. That is excellent news!
