Sin always brings suffering. The enemy tells us we’ll be able to manage sin or that God will forgive us, so it doesn’t really matter if we disobey Him. He tells us we’ll be able to stop whenever we want. He lies to us. I know this from personal experience. Sin is a snare, a trap. Once you step in it and it clamps shut, you can’t remove it. You’re helpless against it.
But Jesus isn’t helpless against it. And He isn’t surprised that you’ve fallen prey to the enemy’s lies or to the temptation of your own flesh. You are still precious to Him.
