This is not about what you've done....

This song comes to mind today as a reminder that our past mistakes do not determine who we are...

God continues to remind me here in Haiti, that he wants to restore brokenness. 

 I read this from the Message Bible yesterday:

Colossians 1:19-20

... everything of God finds its proper place in him...

...all the broken and dislocated pieces of the universe - people, things, animals and atoms - get properly fixed and fit together in vibrant harmonies, all because of His death, his blood that poured down from the Cross.

Some of the lyrics from "You are More"

But don't you know who you are, What has been done for you?

Yeah don't you know who you are? 

You are more than the choices that you've made, 

You are more than the sum of your past mistakes, 

You are more than the problems you create, You've been remade. 

'Cause this is not about what you've done, But what's been done for you.

This is not about where you've been, 

But where your brokenness brings you to

This is not about what you feel, But what He felt to forgive you, 

And what He felt to make you new.
