Second Chances

Second Chances!

Repeating an initial instance

Luke 15:20-24
20 “And he arose and came to his father. But when he was still a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. 21 And the son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight, and am no longer worthy to be called your son.’

22 “But the father said to his servants, ‘Bring[b] out the best robe and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet. 23 And bring the fatted calf here and kill it, and let us eat and be merry; 24 for this my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ And they began to be merry.

(This is my favorite parable lol) There is alot of people who don't believe in second chances! Especially when you have made some really bad mistakes in life. That you couldn't turn around and things would change from how they once were to being something new. Something that is better then it once was. God is a GOD of second, third, forth, fifth chances... Really when we do wrong things do we really deserve another chance... Not really but the bible says FOR ALL HAVE SINNED AN FALLEN SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD. SO WE LL DON'T DESERVE A SECOND CHANCE! YET JUST LIKE THE FATHER IN THIS PARABLE HE WANTED TO GIVE HIS CHILD A SECOND CHANCE! NO MATTER WHAT THEY WENT THRU OR WHAT HE DID!

Forgiveness Gives A Second Chance

1 John 1:9 “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”

Have you ever lost a relationship with someone? Friendship, family member, a relationship? Have you ever wanted it to be restored? We second chances are possible!! Forgivness brings second chances. Look God says if you confess your sins he is able to forgive you of your sins. In forgivness of sins brings what is known as reconciliation and that brings second chances!! Reconcilation Brings forgivness to a Relationship that was once broken back together
