Hosea Chapter 7. God can't see everything that I do!
The passage that stuck out to me is verse one and two that speaks of the different evils that Israel is consumed with and then verse 2 says, “but they do not realize that God remembers all their evil deeds.”
I'm guilty! I get lackadaisical with my thought life and if I realized God knows my sin, that nothing sneaks by him, then I would be ever so careful of where I let my mind go and where I let my actions go.
Yes, I know there is forgiveness, and I'm so thankful for that. I truly am! But God also desires a repentive heart. That's also important.
-
- My desire is to be more repetitive so I end up asking for forgiveness less and less.
- My desire is to be more like Jesus and less like the world.
- My desire is to not give in to the temptations of the mind but maintain purity and Holiness before God.
Lord, help me not be so lackadaisical into thinking my sin is no big deal. Truly forgive me of my thought life and also my actions that often follow the temptations in my mind. Help me be repentive in my heart so I can be a more powerful tool for your kingdom. Truly be glorified in and through my life.
