Saturday of Lent 1, March 4

What if I had an abortion? Will God forgive me?

Yes! There is no sin Jesus did not die for - no sin too little, no sin too big. He died for all. He died for you! 

Jesus told His disciples] If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them.  ~ John 20:23a

To him all the prophets bear witness that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.”  ~ Acts 10:43

In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, which he lavished upon us.  ~ Ephesians 1:7-8a

He is the [atoning sacrifice] for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world.  ~ 1 John 2:2

Dear Jesus, sometimes I mess up real bad! I am so grateful that Your forgiveness is greater than every sin - no matter how bad it is! Please forgive me and help me know Your love. Amen.

Listen to the hymn I Lay My Sins on Jesus and read along with the words below the video. Think about yourself and your sins - whatever and however many they are - and know that Jesus bore them and took them away from you! You are free!
