Sin

I had a really good excuse for not obeying God, really I did. I had good sound justification, but nevertheless, I knew the good that I ought to do, and did not do it... which is sin. When I checked my e-mail this morning, I saw that my friend had e-mailed me, beating me to the punch. I knew that God wanted me to e-mail him first, to build the relationship to His glory, but I did not, and this e-mail in my inbox was God's rebuke to me. I chaffed at the Lord's hand, furious at Him for doing this. I dared to snap and curse at God.

(Sigh). The show at Logos was awesome tonight. It's always encouraging to hear brothers in Christ share through song about what God is doing in their hearts, and all I can do is echo the cries of repentance, grief, and desire, a desire for more of Him.

Oh Father, forgive me, all the more so because I know what I do.
