Sins
Many people cannot or will not see their sins: their hypocrisy, selfishness, determination to have their own way. It. Is a mark of God’s grace that he shows us our sins so that we can come to him for forgiveness. Someone asked Jesus which was the greatest commandment. He answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. The second is like it. Love your neighbor as yourself.” No one does that. We might want to for a while, but eventually, our desire to please ourselves and have our own way overshadows our love for God. Even the finest person you know cannot love God like that all the time. So God provided a way for us to be forgiven and live with him. Praise You, Jesus, for Your sacrificial love.
