Focus: Boxing With My Shadows Day 4 | August 8

Some shadows come from self-betrayal—regrets, shame, and guilt that haunt us. The Bible reminds us that misery follows a life refusing grace (“Destruction and misery are in their ways,” Romans 3:16). 1 John 3 promises that God is greater than our hearts; His forgiveness is available for every mistake. Today, accept God’s forgiveness, confess your failures openly, and lay down the heavy burden of self-condemnation. In Christ, you’re invited to step out of the shadows and walk in the light of His grace.

Bible Verses:

• “Destruction and misery are in their ways.” (Romans 3:16)

• “If our hearts condemn us, we know that God is greater than our hearts.” (1 John 3:20)

• “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” (Romans 8:1)

Call to Action:
List your regrets and confess them to God, trusting that His forgiveness covers all. Thank Him for His mercy and start fresh today.

3 Things to Remember:

• Self-betrayal holds you in darkness.
• God’s forgiveness is greater than any mistake.
• Freedom begins with self-acceptance and surrender.
