You Are Forgiven

He's not mad at you
He's not disappointed
His grace is greater still,
than all of your wrong choices
He is full of mercy and he is ever kind
Hear his invitation, His arms are open wide

You can come as you are,
with all your broken pieces
And all your shameful scars
The pain you hold in your heart,
bring it all to Jesus
You can come as you are

Louder than the voice that whispers your unworthy
Hear the sound of love,
that tells a different story
Shattering your darkness and pushing through the lies
How tenderly he calls you,
His arms are open wide

You can come as you are,
with all your broken pieces
And all your shameful scars
The pain you hold in your heart,
bring it all to Jesus
You can come as you are

You can come as you are

You can come as you are with all your broken pieces
And all your shameful scars
The pain you hold in your heart,
bring it all to Jesus
You can come as you are


When we make mistakes sometimes we think that God is mad at us. We are harder on ourselves than he is with us. We hold onto the bad choices we have made and won’t let it go and forgive ourselves. He is asking us to let it go and come to him. He LOVES us with more PASSION than we could ever realize or possibly comprehend. When we make mistakes we don’t need to run FROM Him…we need to run TO Him!!


Every time we mess up the devil is right there whispering lies into our ears….

“He doesn’t love you anymore”
“He is going to leave you now”
“He is angry with you”
“He is going to make you pay”

Romans 8:1 “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.”

We are saved through the blood of Jesus Christ. There is nothing we can do to earn our salvation. The payment has already been made by the blood.

Ephesians 1:7 “In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace.”

If you have made a bad choice in your life and you are still holding onto it…let it go. You are forgiven! Stop holding onto those bad choices and put them down. Let them go and run into the arms of the Lord. He is waiting with open arms.

I love this line in the song above “Come As You Are” by Pocket Full Of Rocks - His grace is greater than all your wrong choices.

Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”

We are not perfect and we will fail. He is the one that will NEVER fail us!!
