Day 4: Grace for the Repeat Offender
Reading: Psalm 103:8-14; 1 John 1:8-2:2
Devotional: Peter didn't deny Jesus once—he did it three times in rapid succession. We often struggle with repetitive sins, feeling disqualified from grace because we fail in the same ways repeatedly. But Scripture declares that God is "compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love." He doesn't keep a tally of our failures. As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions. Jesus didn't die for just your first sin or your occasional stumbles—He died for all of them, including the ones you'll commit tomorrow. This isn't a license for carelessness; it's an invitation to live in the freedom of forgiveness. Stop counting your failures and start counting on His faithfulness.
Reflection Question: What repeated failure do you need to release into God's abundant grace?
