For My Sin Is Great!!!

Ps.25:11 For your name's sake, O LORD, pardon my guilt, for it is great.
Do you ever ponder on your guilt? Do you even really know the depth of your sin? The little things we do that seem insignificant as sin but are truly sinful. The way we stray from the truth a little, we don't call it a lie but it is! To show the glory of God and His great mercy, He gave His Son as our atonement!
Lord, I am convicted by this verse. I need forgiveness for all the seemingly little things that my human mind tells me are not really sin but they are in Your eyes. Show us mercy and forgiveness but teach us Your Word. Amen
Acknowledge your sin:
1 John 1:8-10 If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
The world is not our friend! It is full of evil desires that take our mind off God and God's reason for giving us life!
1 John 2:15-17 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world--the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride in possessions--is not from the Father but is from the world. And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever.
Lord, it is by Your power that we were created! It is by Your will we exist! It is by Your grace that we have been saved from hell! But it is by our obedience to Your Word that we show our faith and love! Forgive us our sin by Your grace. Amen
