Shame and Forgiveness – Laying down regret and learning to live free
Free printable devotional (PDF)

Shame doesn’t just remind you of what happened—it tries to rename you. It turns, “I did something wrong,” into “I am something wrong,” and follows you into conversations, memories, and quiet moments you wish you could escape.

Shame and Forgiveness is a gentle devotional for the days when:

• You’re replaying past mistakes and can’t seem to move on

• You feel unworthy of God’s love or distant from His grace

• You’re carrying secrets, regrets, or “if only” moments

• You’re afraid that what you’ve done is now who you are

Through compassionate words, Scripture, and a closing prayer, this devotional helps you:

• Separate your identity from your worst moments

• See how Jesus meets people right in the middle of their shame

• Picture what it means to be washed, covered, and made new in Him

• Take honest, practical steps toward living free and forgiven

What’s included:

• 1 printable devotional (PDF)

• 5–7 minute read

• Scripture-centered encouragement + guided prayer

• For personal use (you may reprint for your own use as often as you’d like)

This free devotional is part of the Ivory Road Resources collection—created to help you lay down shame and walk in the freedom Jesus has already given you.
