Jesus frees us from shame and condemnation, replaces fear with freedom, and gives us a new identity rooted in God’s unconditional love.
Main Ideas:
Our stories shape our identity and our life.
Often, the stories that shape us the most are the ones forced on us.
The Author of Life, is already at work, rewriting your story from the inside out.
We can get stuck in the same broken story over and over.
Jesus doesn’t erase our past chapters… he rewrites them into something beautiful.
Jesus says you’re not just forgiven… You are rescued.
The Holy Spirit of God is guiding you through your story, writing it one page at a time.
Our setbacks and our struggles are real… but they are not our truest story.
You don’t have to try harder because you’re already loved.
Invitation:
Catch the old voices and replace them with truth.
“I am not condemned. I am God’s beloved child.”
Pray: ‘Holy Spirit, help me see myself the way you do.’
