He is God’s way of dealing with our sins, not only ours but the sins of the whole world. ~ 1 John 2:2 (CEB)
Lord, I naturally minimize my sins. I think they are not such big deals. But you thought that my sins were so significant that you figured out a way to deal with them. You sent your Son into the world to disarm them. That makes me feel loved and very special. It makes me want to have nothing more to do with sin. I confess that my intentions are greater than my actions -- but I feel confident that because of your unfailing love you will overcome my failures. And that's good news. Amen.
