I have to confess that I find it impossible to live a sinless life. As I have matured in the Lord, the more obvious sins—lust, anger, materialism, and such—have fallen away, but the more subtle sins of the heart—envy, pride, and self-righteousness—have dug in their heels. The more I ponder these things, the more convinced I am that I have been focusing on the wrong thing. The real question isn’t, Can I live a sinless life? but, Am I fully surrendered to Christ, am I trusting daily in His finished work?
“If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.”
— 1 John 1:8 (NIV)
Lord Jesus continue Your work of grace in me until I am fully conformed to Your image. Amen.
