Evening: Psalm 105:23-45; Luke 5:12-26
“Sin”
is a little word that has gotten a bad rap. Some preachers use it to
frighten people with God, to manipulate them into compliance and
‘belief’. But sin is not our little misdeeds; it is when we sever our
relationship with God. God consistently reaches out, seeking to bridge
the distance we have put between him and ourselves. In Jesus, God
reaches out again, seeking our consent to heal what is broken. Though
we resist for a long, long time, in the moment we take God’s hand, God
has the power to make it right between us, and does.
