Have You Committed an Omission
August 8, 2008

“Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to do it.” Proverbs 3:27

Sins of omission are subtle. Easy to fall into. Whereas you may not be able to deny going out and getting drunk or cheating on your spouse, there’s no “evidence” if you turn a blind eye to someone in need, drop a “tip” rather than a “tithe” into the offering plate as it is passed, or forget to pray for family members, friends, neighbors, or missionaries.

Ask yourself:

• Have I been interceding in prayer as I should for the people I know?
• Have I been giving financially as the Lord would want
• Have I been generous with my time, effort, and talents to help those in need?
• If I have been withholding good that is within my power to do, what am I going to do to change?
