Main Street Petersburg 812-354-6775 Sunday morning worship service at 10 :30 a.m. Guilt and Shame Several years ago, a young woman came to my office and with a voice of desperation, asked how she could deal with guilt and shame. She had been reared in a small town where everyone knew everyone else's business, and even more, her family con- tinually reminded her of her wayward years. Those years had involved drug and alco- hol abuse, petty crimes and sexual promiscuity. She felt as though she had explored her options, including return- ing to the streets and all that involved. She had even consid- ered suicide. I began to tell her about God's love and forgiveness. We shared some Bible vers- es, prayed together and then I began to tell her about Je- sus. I told her about the wom- an caught in the act of adultery and that Jesus confronted her sinfulness, but did not con- demn her. I told her about the Samaritan woman Jesus en- countered, according to John's Gospel, chapter 4. This wom- an also had a reputation in her community and that Jesus did not condemn her either. We talked a long time about God's love; a love that was un- conditional, a love that was so profound, it allowed Jesus to the penalty for all of the sins of all of the world. I told her that she was not alone in her sinful- ness and its guilt and that all of us, though our sins may be different from hers, were sin- ners too. I encouraged her, as difficult as it would be, to move on from her past and discover VINCENT CHRISTIAN CHURCH 8264 E.

"Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all cir- cumstances, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you" (I Thessalonians 5:16 -18). Dr. Robert Asa, Minister new life through Jesus. She seemed relieved to some degree. She left my of- fice and I never saw her again. Truthfully, her story is my story and yours. Through God's love, we all can discover forgiveness, be rid of our guilt and live a new life. It happens when Jesus comes into our lives. I'm Dennis Randall and I'm all about Jesus.
