Scriptures:

• “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.“ – Romans 8:28 (NIV)

 

• “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.“ – 2 Corinthians 5:17 (NKJV)

 

• “Do not judge, or you too will be judged. ² For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.“ – Matthew 7:1-2 (NIV)

 

• “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.“ – John 3:16 (NIV)

 

• “For to us a child is born,
      to us a son is given,
      and the government will be on his shoulders.
  And he will be called
      Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
      Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.“ – Isaiah 9:6 (NIV)

 

Hold Yourself Accountable:

• Acknowledge your past and seek God’s help to make peace with your past.

 

Apply the Kingdom Principle:

• “When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to get well?”“ – John 5:6 (NIV)
