Self deception

You people of Israel accuse me of being unfair! But listen—I’m not unfair; you are! ~ Ezekiel 18:25 (CEV)

If we say that we have not sinned, we are fooling ourselves, and the truth isn’t in our hearts. But if we confess our sins to God, he can always be trusted to forgive us and take our sins away. ~ 1 John 1: 8-9 (CEV)

KEY THOUGHT:
Self deception will get you nowhere.
PRAYER:
Gracious Lord, you accept us even though we're sinners. Yet, we, including I, minimize our sinfulness. Save me from my self deception so that I can full enjoy the grace that you have extended to us through Christ Jesus. Amen.
