Forgiving Yourself

FIRST15
About this episode

 

As we reach the end of our weeklong focus on forgiveness, today we’re going to look at what it takes to forgive ourselves. For some of us, forgiving ourselves can be the hardest part of forgiveness.

 

May God give us the grace to see ourselves as he does, and offer ourselves love, compassion, and forgiveness regardless of what we’ve done.

 

Our Scripture for today comes from Proverbs 28:13. Today's worship is Good To Me by First15 Worship feat. Taylor Zebracki.

We are so excited to announce our very first First15 Kid’s Devotional book, My Time With God. 

 

Get your copy of First15’s first ever devotional book for kids today!

 

My Time with God is a 20 day devotional written for young readers, ages 6-12, to help encourage and equip them to establish a lifetime of learning and walking with God through daily scripture reading and reflection. Each day of this 20 day devotional includes scriptures, activities, and prayers to help growing believers learn how to connect more deeply with God and about how spending time with God helps us live the life he’s called us to. 

 

This resource is foundational, answering questions such as, 

 

  • What is a devotional?

  • What is prayer?

  • Why spend time with God?

  • What does it mean to enjoy God’s presence?



“When we choose to love God and let ourselves experience his love, he also teaches us how to love others. Living for love means living like Jesus did. He was always thinking of others.”


Request your copy of First15’s new kids devotional, My Time With God, today by going to supportfirst15.org, and help your kids explore spending time with God each and every day! Again that is supportfirst15.org. The link is also in the podcast description.
