“I know my transgressions, and my sin is ever before me.” Ps51.3 ESV
Like most people my age, I live with pain every single day. Sadly, I also live with my sins every day of my life. And, although sin like pain is to be expected it is never to be embraced. I do what I can to manage my pain; I also do what I can to deal with my transgressions. What can we do? Just keep breathing!
Spiritual respiration is as necessary for the life of the soul as breathing is for the life of the body. We exhale by confessing our sins before God and inhale by accepting His forgiveness and grace offered to us in Jesus. Breathe! Just keep breathing! 7/8/2008 ts
