Weeding Out Sins

Bible in a Year:

• Deuteronomy 32–34
• Mark 15:26–47

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins.

1 John 1:9

When I noticed a sprig budding next to the garden hose by our porch, I ignored the seemingly harmless eyesore. How could a little weed possibly hurt our lawn? But as the weeks passed, that nuisance grew to be the size of a small bush and began taking over our yard. Its stray stalks arched over a portion of our walkway and sprouted up in other areas. Admitting its destructive existence, I asked my husband to help me dig out the wild weeds by the roots and then protect our yard with weed killer.

When we ignore or deny its presence, sin can invade our lives like unwanted overgrowth and darken our personal space. Our sinless God has no darkness in Him . . . at all. As His children, we’re equipped and charged to face sins head-on so we can “walk in the light, as he is in the light” (1 John 1:7). Through confession and repentance, we experience forgiveness and freedom from sin (vv. 8–10) because we have a great advocate—Jesus (2:1). He willingly paid the ultimate price for our sins—His lifeblood—and “not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world” (v. 2).

When our sin is brought to our attention by God, we can choose denial, avoidance, or deflection of responsibility. But when we confess and repent, He weeds out sins that harm our relationships with Him and others.

Reflect & Pray

How does knowing your sins are offenses against God change your view about repentance? What sins have taken root and need to be weeded out of your life?

Loving Father, please uproot the sins from my life so I can grow closer to You and others.

[Fiji Hill]

This ballad, which tells a hauntingly disturbing tale of high adventure was recorded by several artists and was a big hit on both sides of the Atlantic. However, it didn't make the Oldies playlists and in 2023, it is largely forgotten.

In his introduction, Eamonn Andrews, a prominent Irish radio personality who scored with it on the east side of the Atlantic explains that the story took place in "one of the Western states," whereas the American performers placed it in "one of our Western states."
