guilt.

Saturday, January 12, 2008

A couple days ago, I was contemplating guilt. I was thinking about the effects of it, when I feel it, etc., and I was reminded of King David. I remembered hearing, or reading, rather, that he was affected by his guilt even to the point of physical illness! That got me thinking--why aren't I bothered that much when I sin? I'm not saying that I NEVER feel guilty, but it seems like that's only when my sin is "something big".

I know that in God's eyes, all sin is the same, so I asked Him to help me recognize ALL my sins, even those "little" ones, and give me an honest feeling of guilt...Guilt that I've not only done something to someone else, but to God Himself.

Until later,
