God, I struggle to see beyond all of the hurt, pain, and shame of my past, and it makes me question Your love for me. I just can’t seem to escape the cycle of shame and guilt. But I know Your Word holds the truth my heart needs right now: You remove my sins and remember them no more (Isaiah 43:25). You make me new in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17). You are full of redemption and grace (Ephesians 1:7). Help me accept Your grace. Empower me to walk in the freedom You have given me today. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
