Lie: I did too many things for God to forgive me.

Truth:That's a bold face lie! God loves you so much he sent Jesus to die in your place. Jesus is the final sacrifice for your sins. His blood payment is enough. When you receive Jesus sacrifice in your place you are redeemed and paid in full. Jesus paid your debt. God forgave you and remembers none of your sins. Father God wants an intimate relationship with you. Forgive yourself, too. Thank you Jesus for loving us so much you gave your life for us.

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

Romans 3:21-26 (NIV) “21 But now apart from the law the righteousness of God has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. 22 This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe.There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,24 and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. 25 God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of his blood—to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished— 26 he did it to demonstrate his righteousness at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.”

Psalm 103:12 (NIV) “as far as the east is from the west,  so far has he removed our transgressions from us.”
