Redemption. Return. Forgiveness. Repentance.

We all screw up.
We all make promises to God. Don't we?
How many of us have broken that promise?
How many of us have broken that promise twice... thrice... a couple hundred times?

"Dear God, I promise not to cuss, even if am angry as shit... oh fuck... oh wait... aww shit... damn not... damn it! Okay God, seriously, I promise not to cuss starting... now... promise... okay? For serious okay?"

The thing about God is that His grace, love, and mercy are infinite.
Everytime we screw up, God is there waiting for us to ask Him to help us up. All you need to do is ask. God WANTS to help us. God is ACTIVELY seeking us out.

He never hides from us. We are the ones who hide from Him.

The only thing we need to do is earnestly want to change in our hearts. God cares about the state of our heart. He wants us to come back to Him.

Have you broken a promise to God? Maybe something happened. Maybe you couldn't keep the promise. Maybe someone made you break your promise.

Have you asked God to forgive you for that broken promise? God's waiting. No matter how much you screw up, God's love for us and patience for us and grace for us is infinite. Like the Father in the parable of the Prodigal Son, He sheds all of His majesty, all of His status as creator of the universe, all of His status as I AM to come running to find us.

All you need to do is ask God to forgive you and then make the promise again.
With God it truly is "forgive and forget."
He wipes the slate clean every time He forgives us.

Make the promise again in your heart and God will honor your heart.

"Everything is permissible for me"—but not everything is beneficial. "Everything is permissible for me"—but I will not be mastered by anything.
1 Cor. 6:12
