Have you ever experienced a time in your life when you didn’t feel the weight of God’s judgment after you sinned? There comes a moment when we often feel trapped, as if we are merely reliving the same experiences repeatedly. We burden ourselves with the shame of our past or are drawn back by the temptations embedded in the memories of our former lives. As we sift through old photos, we might find ourselves comparing our past selves to who we are now, asking, “Why am I stuck?” We recognize that our former life did not glorify God, yet it sometimes feels as if it was a bit easier than the struggles we face now.
