SIN

"Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin."

James 4:17
King James Version

What is sin? The Bible tells us that sin is knowing to do something good and not doing it. Jesus has told us that He wants us to love one another unconditionally just as He loves us and when we don't love one another unconditionally like He loves us then we are disobeying Him, hurting Him and breaking His heart.

Do I always love others unconditionally? No, there are times when I get upset with someone or get my feelings hurt and I allow resentment and bitterness to remain in my heart and then I have to tell God I'm sorry and ask Him to forgive me. The only person who has a right to not forgive us Jesus. After  all the pain and agony He suffered because of our sins, Jesus has a right to not forgive. 

How thankful I am that Jesus forgave me while still hanging on the cross with the blood flowing down His body. Jesus loves you. If you are reading this devotion then I am writing to you.
