Sin
So we all sin. Not making excuses for the wrong things I have done in life. Just stating a fact. In reading the story of David tonight with Riley, I discovered a few new things about sin.
There is "a lot of sin" and "a little sin" and "goodness." Here was our discussion:
Me (reading): Now David wasn't perfect. He made many bad choices and even murdered a man. He had much sin, but God still loved him...... do you know what sin is, Riley?
Riley: No!
Me: It's when we do things that are not right. When we make bad choices. I sin sometimes and have to ask God for forgiveness. Do you sin?
Riley: No. I don't sin.
Me: Oh ok. If you don't sin, then what do you do?
Riley: I just have goodness inside of me. No sin.
Me: Oh I see.
Riley: And I might have a little sin in me. Like when I get time outs.
Me: And I have sin in me too.
Riley: A little sin? Or a lot of sin? I think you have sin in you.
Me: A lot or a little?
Riley: Just a little. I think.
