Remember, it is sin to know what you ought to do and then not do it.--James 4:17 (NLT)
Heavenly
Father,
All my sin is found in my disobedience.
Help me to
see how foolishly I see the sin of my actions
as being of greater consequence than the sin of my inaction.
I know that
You have given me instructions on what I should not do, in order to protect me
from those paths that lead to destruction and death.
But help me
not to forget that You have also instructed me in things that I should do, in order to bring me joy and
peace—so that I might live life more abundantly.
Don’t let me
lose sight of the foolishness that is found in having been given the light of life, but not
walking in the fullness of that light in total obedience—doing those things that You have told me to do,
as well as fleeing from what You have warned me against.
All my sin is found in my disobedience.
In the name
of Jesus, Amen.
