What If I Didn't Mean To -- But I Still Did?

In this Anchor Point, we study Elder Matthew S. Holland’s General Conference message Forsake Not Your Own Mercy and discuss repentance, forgiveness, weakness, feeling unworthy, and trusting Jesus Christ to forgive us again and again.We talk honestly about those moments when we didn’t mean to make mistakes—but still fall short. When we feel like we “blow it” again and again, it’s easy to wonder if Heavenly Father is still willing to forgive us.This episode explores the comforting truth that God fully understands mortality, weakness, and human imperfection. Through the Atonement of Jesus Christ, His mercy is endless, patient, and always available.We discuss why the Savior invites us to come to Him repeatedly—without fear, shame, or hesitation—and how true repentance brings healing, confidence, and spiritual strength.You’ll be reminded that no matter how many times you stumble, Christ is big enough, loving enough, and powerful enough to lift you again.If you’ve ever struggled with guilt, discouragement, or feeling “not good enough,” this episode will help you feel hope, peace, and renewed trust in God’s grace.✨ Subscribe for more Anchor Points focused on Jesus Christ, repentance, healing, and covenant strength.0:00 — Why We All Need Jesus Christ0:05 — Studying “Forsake Not Your Own Mercy” (General Conference)0:19 — When Mistakes Feel Spiritually Crushing0:37 — “I Didn’t Mean To” and Human Weakness1:16 — Repentance Means Repairing the Damage1:43 — Spiritual Maturity Through the Atonement2:04 — Is God’s Grace Big Enough for Me?2:12 — Family Fasting and Trusting God’s Power2:33 — Is Our Faith Being Diluted?2:53 — God’s Grace Is Enough3:31 — I Am Nothing Without Christ3:46 — Praying for Struggling Family Members4:07 — Temple Prayer Roll and Power of Prayer4:23 — Trusting God With Many Needs4:34 — We’re In This Together Through Christ4:40 — Stay Anchored in Jesus Christ#LDS #Repentance #Forgiveness #AtonementOfJesusChrist #GeneralConference #FeelingUnworthy #ComeUntoChrist #FaithInChrist #GodsMercy #AnchoredPodcast
