God’s love is bigger than your sin

Be angry about what Jesus is angry about
Forgive
Jesus calls us to forgive not because it’s easy, but because it’s right.
I have heard all about you, Lord. I am filled with awe by your amazing works. In this time of our deep need, help us again as you did in years gone by. And in your anger, remember your mercy. - Habakkuk 3:2
His love endures forever!
Forgive and be forgiven
"Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness. When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.” - Matthew 9:35-38
You can’t out-sin the grace of God
