 Genesis 6:12 So God looked upon the earth, and indeed it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth. 


A child sprays ketchup all over the kitchen, a teenager hosts a wild party while his parents are out of town, and a married man on a business trip slips out of his room at night to intermingle with women who socialize at the bar. 


Disobedience, called sin, isn't new to anyone. From the beginning of time with Adam and Eve, mankind possesses this lust for sinful behavior, satisfying their internal need for gratification of some sorts or acts out as a form of rebellion. When we carry out these acts of sin, we unplug from the ones who love us the most, especially God. Yeah, those closest to you might not know your secrets, but God sees everything and this behavior removes you from his rays of blessings. 


Not only do you lose out on God's blessings, but Satan uses your disobedience to generate guilt, which makes it appear the door to God's forgiveness has been locked shut. Why put yourself in a situation like this? 


Friend, maybe you are guilty of a lot of sins (true for everyone), don't lose hope in God's ability to forgive when you acknowledge your wrongdoings and come to Him in complete repentance. He loves you so much He put the shame and guilt of sin upon His Son, Jesus Christ. Nothing can undo that love. Come to Him today for spiritual cleansing and healing. Blessings.
