"In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare: but the righteous doth sing and rejoice."
Proverbs 29:6
This struck me today because sometimes the gospel is so simple, but we still miss it. :) This verse is basically telling us that sin is a snare and a burden to our souls, and it prevents us from singing and rejoicing because we feel that weight. ... The weight is there because *we* want to be different and better, not because God is somehow forcing us to be. :)
Today, let's remember the simplicity of freeing ourselves from sin. We'll be lighter and cleaner and happier. Instead of trying to justify our own misery, let's work on letting it drop out of our lives.
