I Didn't Do It

If they did not see me, I did not do it. 

Sometimes, like children, we believe that God may not see our transgressions. But, we know, like the parent that He is, God sees all. 

Yet, like a loving parent, He always forgives. It is human to think that if we live poorly God will neglect us.  But, God is not like that. God will always love us. In fact, it is in our moments of disgrace that God offers us His grace.

It is in our weakness, and especially in our admission of weakness, that our loving God reaches out and embraces us.

We need to see our moments of failing, not as failing God, but as those opportunities to ask for help and to accept His grace.
