“Lord God, we have sinned against you; we have done evil in your sight. We are sorry and repent.”

I wonder if we really regard our sin as evil? Do we really believe that the wrong things we have done, thought and spoken are actually evil in God’s sight?

It’s so easy to have a cavalier attitude towards sin – if we even use that word! Yet sin is evil in God’s eyes.

During this lent period it might be good for us to think on this and realise the seriousness of sin in God’s eyes.
