Proverbs 24:16 “The godly may trip seven times, but they will get up again. But one disaster is enough to overthrow the wicked.”

God Bless You,

We should feel conviction when we sin…something inside of us knows that sin is wrong because we were made in the nature of God and he is the total opposite from sin. We sinned, we messed up, we did something we weren’t supposed to, we said the wrong thing, we looked at something we knew not to…let’s not get so engulfed on what we did wrong and just recognize that we need to change!! When this happens, let’s ask God to forgive us and help us change and obviously do our part to truly change. Let’s be conscious that as much as God loves us, we cannot play around with his unconditional love and just sin carelessly knowing he’ll forgive us. We need to stop punishing ourselves for things God has already forgiven and forgotten about, we need to forgive ourselves sometimes…Selah. The Word doesn’t say that the righteous man won’t fall; it says that when he does fall (spiritually speaking), they will get up again!! We can only accomplish this through God’s love and strength but they key point to remember today is that we need to get up and move forward. Don’t get stuck in things that God already has a solution for!!
