"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." (Son Lyrics - Tenth Avenue North - You Are More)
I heard these lyrics again this morning and I have to say that they really hit home. First because I had some pretty wild and rebellious years where I definitely made my share of mistakes. It is always good to hear, either in song or through the Gospel, that I have been remade. Christ dying on the cross at Calvary assured that.
Second, one of my siblings is going through a very tough time. I run these song lyrics in my head when I talk to her. As humans we tend to not be able to look past past mistakes of others. That is our nature. However, we must always remember that we have been remade by God, through His grace alone. We must continue to share the love Christ shares with us, especially when we see someone trying to get back on their feet.
