Are you still doubting?

"I read your emails every day and admire that you manage to live it like this. In theory, I know it all, but I fail to implement it..."

I heard this once from a woman who unexpectedly approached me at a wedding, and I was impressed by how many of the miracle emails she could quote by heart! But… There is a big difference between hearing or reading something and doing it.

How do I make that happen? Well, first of all, you have to know that I often don't manage it all the time either. 😂 I also stumble and fall again and again. I also often think, "Gee, Déborah. You actually knew it...".

And honestly? These moments can pull me down quite a bit. Although I immediately ask God for forgiveness. But it often feels like that's not enough. And so I stay sad because I keep thinking about my failures....

It's very important to bring mistakes and failures to light and ask God for forgiveness. And do you know what God says about that? “I correct and discipline everyone I love…” (Revelation 3:19, NIV).

Do you hear that? That guilty conscience—that sense that you’ve done something wrong—it comes up because God loves you! ❤️

The verse continues, “...If you hear my voice and open the door…” (which I interpret to mean, “If you respond to this guilty conscience and ask me to forgive you”) “…I will come in, and we will share a meal together as friends.” (Revelation 3:20, NLT)

Ah, if you just ask for forgiveness, God not only wants to forgive you, He wants to eat with you! And eating is a beautiful thing, something that brings joy! God wants you to be happy again and not keep thinking about your failures!

That is the way to joy! Happiness comes to those who ask for forgiveness and then consciously accept it!

You are a miracle!
