“If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us,” (1 John 1:8).
What is sin? It is missing the mark. What is the mark? God, of course. God’s plans, purposes and pursuits for our lives. He wrote a book about each person He created describing the gifts He gave and journaling His hopes and dreams for our lives. I, myself, tried many avenues thinking each one to be perfect for me. They were all sin. It took me a long time to admit that because I was only trying to do my best. Who could fault that? God could. We are His creation, not our own. We are happiest doing His perfect will.
