SIN OF OMISSION
James 4:17
Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.
Personal Challenge
We often get all caught up in focusing on the sins that we commit and forget that there are also sins of omission. There are things around us that need to be done in the name of our Lord and we ignore or reject them. We are asked to feed the hungry, clothe the naked, take care of the widow and the orphan, and love our neighbor. When we do not do these things when the opportunity arises, that is a sin. It may be something as simple as speaking a kind word or as complex as getting all dirty helping someone out of the mire that they are in. These are the sins that can easily separate the sheep from the goats. Lord, have mercy! Lord, have mercy! Lord, have mercy!
