We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all.

DEVOTIONAL
Heavy Weight Removed
We've all done things that weigh us
down and make us wonder, "Why do I
do what I know is wrong?"
In Scripture, sin is used to describe
actions that miss the target God has
asked us to aim for: living a life
centered around loving God and
others. While there are universal
actions that dishonor God, small
acts of disobedience also pull us
away from Him. The apostle James
wrote that "it is a sin to know what
the right thing to do is, and then not
do it" (James 4:17).
In other words, if you know what God
is asking you to do, yet you still
decide to disobey Him-then you're
undermining God's authority in your
life. Sin entices us because it is self-
gratifying, but it results in eternal
separation from God and others.
For a long time, there was no way for
most people to draw near to God
because God cannot be a part of
anything that undermines His perfect
character.
But while we were controlled by sin,
Jesus came and died for us. And
because of Jesus' death and
resurrection, we can now experience
a life that isn't ruled by our mistakes.
Jesus' voluntary sacrifice and
separation from God can lead to our
reconciliation with Him. None of this
is because we deserve it, but
because God has always desired it.
While we might continue to struggle
between doing right and wrong, we
don't have to face this struggle
alone. And the great news is: God
wants to help because He knows
that we can't overcome sin on our
own.
So right now, take note of some of
the things you are currently
struggling with. Where do you need
to give God control? Picture handing
those things over to Jesus and allow
Him to show you His love for you. He
paid the price for your forgiveness.
You only need to receive it.
PRAYER
A Prayer to Refocus on God:
God, thank You for making a way for me to leave the weight of all my sins behind. Help me to remember that Your grace is always available because Your Son gave His life for me. You made a way for me to be forgiven! Thank You! In Jesus’ name, Amen.
