All three of these things are part of the journey of faith. First we sin. This is not meant to make anyone beat themselves up. We do not need to go around shouting 'woe is me.' It is just to say that all sin and fall short of the glory of God. In response to that sin, though, we need to confess. We need to come before God in prayer and confess what we have done. In so doing we humble ourselves before the Lord and recognize our own shortcomings. But then comes the best part: redemption. We are saved from sin even before we commit the sin. We are given God's grace, we are blessed with the cross. By the sacrifice of Jesus we have been saved from sin. Praise be to God that we have redemption to overcome the sin in our lives. God bless you.
