Put Down the Shovel

“He has dug a pit and hollowed it out, and has fallen into the hole which he made. His mischief will return upon his own head, and his violence will descend upon his own pate” (Ps 7:15-16)
 
The above verse is a description of the man who won’t repent. We all sin, but the worst thing you can do when you sin is to continue. If sin digs us a hole, repentance stops us before it gets too deep. Yet, far too often pride or covetousness urge us to defend an indefensible position.
 
If you’ve sinned – own it. The sooner the better.
 
Apologize, make restitution, confess, and change course.
 
Unchecked sin digs your own grave. Put the shovel down.
 
“The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent…” (Acts 17:30)
