THE SIN OF RUINING GOOD DAYS
Lady: When I throw away spoiled food from the refrigerator it makes me feel guilty all day.
Pastor: A day spoiled by feeling guilty is a far greater waste than a few items of food being thrown away.
How typical --unable to accept my imperfection I gloom around for days over a mistake thereby corrupting hundreds of precious hours – a far greater sin.
Who do I think I am if a little flaw gets me down. I must in fact think I’m pretty good – if that can ruin my day.
May God help me to throw away my mistakes, forgive myself, and charge cheerfully and confidently ahead determined not to waste the day with unnecessary guilt.
