Lately, I have been
thinking a lot about sin.
The reasoning behind
it, and the consequences of it.
I realized one
thing:
sin hurts.
It hurts you. It
hurts those around you.
Maybe that is one
reason why God hates sin,
Because sin hurts.
Even when we think
no one else knows.
But remember,
Jesus died for our
sins. For our hurts. For the hurts others have caused us. He took Father-God's
wrath on our sin upon Himself. The King of Glory became as a criminal for me, for
you. Oh. How He loves us.
"Upon that
cross of Jesus mine eye at times can see
The very dying form
of One Who suffered there for me;
And from my stricken
heart with tears two wonders I confess;
The wonders of
redeeming love and my unworthiness. "
Elizabeth Clephane,
Beneath the cross of Jesus
