Night Prayer 

For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.

Inspiration 

We humans like hierarchies. And when it comes to sin, we are often quick to assuage our own guilt by comparing ourselves to ‘worse’ offenders. To be sure, some sins have a more severe earthly impact than others, but all have the spiritual effect of separating us from God. Fortunately, Jesus’ blood covers all sins, great and small, so that all lawbreakers, notorious and petty, may be reconciled to him.

Prayer 

Father, thank You for paying the price to pardon my sins. And I confess my need to lay down my pride, by which I have excused and justified my thoughts and actions. Help me to seek You alone as my measure for righteousness, and You alone as my source of goodness. In Jesus’ name, amen.
