Reflection

The practice of confession and repentance frees and heals us from sin’s effects. It’s simply a case of:

  1. Acknowledging a particular sin in your life which is affecting your relationship with God / others. 
  2. Thanking God that you’re already forgiven because of Jesus’ death for you.
  3. Asking for help from God and others to live like Jesus. Sometimes we also need to ask others for help so they can support us through the process of change.

However, it doesn’t take long to realise that it is impossible to live like Jesus by willpower alone.

Next time we meet, we’ll learn about the incredible gift of the Holy Spirit. God gives Christians the Holy Spirit to live wholeheartedly for Jesus.

Shane’s experience
"I’ve experienced healing through taking opportunities to be open with people about my struggles and sin instead of dealing with them alone."
