Because, of that imperfection we all, mess up. Many times, many different ways. I will say that when we do mess up, it's usually opposite of being obedient to God.
If that ever happems, my Deep Thought is this. That person is becoming a temporary follower of Satan. No, read it carefully. I said a temporary follower of Satan at that time. Not a permanent worshipper of the evil one. See the difference?
Any one of us can fall into Satan's ugly domain. I can share so many times where I found myself in this kind of predicament or category and became a temporary Satan follower. However, no need to elaborate. That's private. :)
You all are smart beautiful people. I'm sure you understand what I'm trying to say. The devil is nothing but a liar, deceiver, conniver, life breaker! He floods your mind with cunning lies and evil Temptations. And, unfortunately due to us being imperfect, we may listen to those bad thoughts and end up giving birth to sin.
We need to be encouraged. because yeah, we will most likely mess up. When that happens, we need to apologize to God, and to whomever your heart tells you to apologize to. Then, here comes the good news! Jesus says that he will forgive us! Well, that is only if you chose him to be your father. Have you accepted him as your Lord and savior? Basically if he comes back today, are you prepared?
I want to end with some words from C Lewis. She's an awesome sister in Christ! She works with a lot of celebrities an aspiring actors and actresses. I thank her for her wise words in her devotional readings.
"Admittedly, very few powerful people think they worship the devil. But if you worship (devote your time, attention and love to...) idols (which include money and fame), you worship him--not Him. " CL
8 Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, andshowed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. 9 And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.”
