Yes, I did that, that was me
I was guilty of that, until He set me free
Yes, I said that, until my tongue was bridled
I'm ashamed of that, when I put others before Him as idols
Now I am forgiven, no I won't look back
Cause God as merciful as He is, has forgiven me for that.

As we grow in grace living the life God called is calling us to live, we are sometimes reminded of our past: who we were, what we did. Guilt becomes our name as we begin to identify ourselves with "that": the sin and the shame that results from the sin. We forget God paid the ultimate price on the Cross of Calvary, so we could live free with purpose, on purpose. His unconditional love abounds as His grace keeps us moment by moment. Our "that" has been forgiven. So when others remind you of your past, you remind them of the Cross.
