We're ending the Before & After series today with a simple message: God is powerful so that we don't have to be.

Too often we try to do everything on our own and try to solve all of our problems because of fear that God is condemning us. This is not reality, this is our own guilt keeping us from understanding that our God always loves us -- he can handle anything we throw at Him and He has already forgiven us for all of our sins.

So before we're so quick to think that we can handle everything ourselves, let's remember that God is the most powerful and will eradicate any and all sins we commit.
