Reconciled Already
My child, the failure you feel is condemnation meant to entrap you in shame. Neither you or any other person can “fix” their state of brokenness and separation from Me, let alone another’s. The disappointment you feel over not “having done enough,” or not having done it “right,” is nonsense, designed to convince you to give up and exchange the gift of freedom and life I have granted for rigorous bondage that only leads to death. That is why I came – to reconcile all things back to Myself. Stop striving, for in doing so you are neglecting the abundant life I want you to live in now. I understand your desire to live and minister to Me. Rest in Me and serve out of covenant relationship, trusting in My great love and reconciliatory work in you and others.
Rom. 8:1, “There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.” NKJV
2 Cor. 5:17-21, “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, that is, that God was in Christ Jesus reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation. Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God. For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.” NKJV
