Did you fail? Great start. Here you will find out why God does not want to punish you, but to heal you
💡

Every one of us doubts sometimes. About yourself, about faith, about God. Maybe you're telling yourself you've messed up too much, that God isn't interested, or that church isn't the place for you. This article will show you that you are not alone. And that these sentences that we repeat to each other may not be true.

“Go and start again” — words that change everything

Imagine that moment. You're standing there. Everyone's staring at you. You know you messed up. No excuse. No chance to sweep it under the carpet. You feel shame, fear and emptiness. And suddenly — silence. Not a strict judgment. But the words that light a spark of hope in you: “Even I do not condemn you. Go and sin no more. “

This isn't just an ancient Bible story about a woman caught unfaithfully. It's the story of each and every one of us. Because each of us has something we'd most like to hide. We all have moments where we were worried we were already over the line. But it is in those moments that Jesus is not reaching for the stone, but for your hand.

When the world says to you, “The end. “

You know it. You make a mistake and it rolls right away. Comments, opinions, boxes. Cancellare cultura. People will judge you by one step. And you start to believe that it was you who messed up everything. The one who failed. The one who no longer has anything to offer.

But you know what? God sees it differently. He doesn't see you as your sin. They don't see you as your failure. He sees you as someone he created with love. Who still has a future. Who can start over.

A place where “no stones are thrown”

Maybe you haven't yet experienced a place where you can tell the truth about yourself without someone condemning you right away. A place where you're not afraid to admit things aren't ideal. Where no one will smother you with religious phrases, but just listen to you. Where you can discover faith that is real. No pretense. No pressure.

SafePoint is not for perfect people. It is for those who want to find a way. Even though they've been lost a few times already.

To forgive does not mean to forget

Jesus didn't look at the woman as a problem. He didn't say, “It's okay, cool, let's move on.” He knew what she did hurt -- her and others. But still, he said, “Even I don't condemn you.” And that's the key. To forgive does not mean to say that nothing happened. It means letting go of what keeps you in the dark and going to the light.

So even if you've been through difficult things -- lies, addictions, relationships that ended painfully -- Jesus doesn't want to cancel you. He doesn't want to ignore you. He offers you a reboot.

You can be like Jesus

Maybe it's not you who needs forgiveness. Maybe you're more the one with the rock in your hand. One who is quick to judge others. But even then, God tells you, “Try different. Give clemency. Give it a second chance.” Because every one of us is sometimes the woman from that story. And each of us can also be Jesus—the one who brings grace, not condemnation.

Your story does not end

The most important thing I want to tell you today is this: your story does not end. Whatever you've been through, it's not too late for a fresh start. God is ready to act. And even SafePoint is there for you if you want to make that move. You don't have to be perfect. You don't have to have everything leveled. Just come as you are.

Because in God's eyes, you're not your biggest fail. You're his beloved child. And He says, “Go and start again. “
