When we become saved and we choose to follow Jesus or bonus round begins.
God is a God of second chances. Sometimes I think the reason God gave me a second chance was because I could learn and share my journey with others through my writing.
Satan will always try to hinder us and handicap us because of our past. He prefers that we never find forgiveness for our sins and hopes to keep our mind mired in guilt and rotten memories.
When you ask God for forgiveness your past is behind you, God remembers it no more, and He wants you to be free of guilt, with a clean slate and a second chance. He is the God of second chances. Let God take the guilt of your past, and put it under His feet to be stomped out completely.
Jesus’s blood set you free and there’s so much he can do with you after that. It’s never too late and nothing is too hard for the Lord.
