1 John 2:28
“And now, dear children, continue in him, so that when he appears we may be confident and unashamed before him at his coming.”
Understanding this passage
John's answer to unworthiness is not to perform harder from a distance. It is to continue in Christ, so confidence replaces shame.
Why this verse helps
Feeling unworthy makes you want to hide from Jesus. This verse says stay in Him—that is how shame loses.
A prayer for you
Jesus, I feel unworthy. I will continue in You. Make me confident and unashamed. Amen.
