Sin, its an inside job
So on the way to work everyday I pass this church who always has good signs. This week it says something like "Sin is an inside job." And I have got to thinking about it..
All my sin does seem to start in my head. Like you have to think it through before you sin. And lately I have realized how sinful I was and still am. And without God I am a horrible person. I am nothing wihtout Him and His grace, mercy and love. I just have such a hard time forgiving myself after doing something wrong because I KNOW better. I KNOW what God has done and I should be so grateful and obedient, yet still I sin. And it is so hurtful to myself. I always ask for God's forgiveness, and I know He forgives me, yet deep inside I am so mad at myself. My friends tell me I need to forgive myself...and I tell them the same thing.. when they can't forgive themself. Why is it so hard to forgive ourselves? Why when we fall and sin does it hurt us more than the person we are sinning against?
Questions questions questions... I am not usually asking so many questions... and I need to trust that God does it for a purpose. We sin for a purpose. Usually, it teaches us something and brings God more glory. For He deserves all praise and thanksgiving. And I have also seen how God has used mistakes and sins to bring His Glory. I always have to remind myself that His thoughts are not our thoughts and His ways not our ways...
