“If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now they have no excuse for their sin. The one who hates me also hates my Father.”
John 15:22-23 CSB
Just like today, people are offended by the truth. They hate the truth when it causes them to reflect on what decisions are made. Conviction is painful…avoiding the truth is easier than making changes that align with the truth. Ignorance is bliss…but it is deadly.
Lord, help those around me to recognize the simplicity of surrendering to You! Where conviction leads to letting go of sin and clinging to You! Where chaos is replaced by peace and anguish is transformed to thanksgiving. Confusion exchanged for joy!
