SIN NO MORE

Greetings!

Oh how it hurts when our children go the wrong way and cause themselves to suffer.
It’s pierces our hearts and causes such pain.
We have showered them with our love and care.

Forgiven them time and time again.
Tried to teach them right from wrong.
Yet they still turn away from us and go astray.

It is during my agonizing over my children, that I realize how painful it must also be for God when we turn from Him and his instruction.

How infinitely more is His love for us….His grace and mercy are abundantly given to us….and yet we still turn from Him daily, through our sin and disobedience.

I feel the pain and it hurts so much….and I can’t even imagine His pain that I cause Him….
I am so much more sorry and eager to repent of my sin, when I realize this.


As Jesus told the women at the well....
John 8:11 - And Jesus said to her, "Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more." NKJ
In the NIV Bible it is translated as "Now go and leave your life of sin"

When we become a child of God, we are to become a new person, leaving our old ways behind.

My desire is to "sin no more"...and I hope yours is too.

Have a wonderful day!
