A Bread Crumb and Fish

Sin is more than just an act of rebellion or violation of rules and morals. Everyday, we try to put ourselves into a position we desire, but can never have--God's position. We want to make our own rules so that we are able to shape what we want, feel, and need; so we fight every day to try and break the authority that we were called to be under. It's our unwillingness to find joy in living lives under the authority of the one and only king that causes us to sin against Him. Sin is, therefore, a relationship, and the only way to restore the broken relationship is through the relationship between us and Christ. It's God's willingness to adopt us that allows this relationship to be restored and to exist.

"Every sin is vertical, no matter how thunderous the horizontal implications of it are. All sin is against God and Him only."



I really like reading Psalm 51.
