Tues Devo: The effect

Hello,

This Easter weekend got me thinking about something a little different. The start of the church service I was at began by talking about creation, and how our world today was not as it was designed. There is an effect of sin – and it leads to death and destruction. We see it with the garden of Eden, we saw it with Cain & Abel, we see it with the death of Jesus – in fact, we even see it with Judas who was so overwhelmed with what he had done he killed himself.
Even our “small stuff” has an effect. We tell a small lie, and lose trust. We get angry quickly and damage a relationship. We are selfish, and lose impactful time with our children.  

Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (NASB)

God took sin seriously, and paid a seriously painful price for us – let us take it seriously too.

Have a blessed day,
