In Psalm 119, the psalmist (probably King David) says that he will keep God’s law continually. This seems like a pretty bold claim considering the fact that all of us, except for Jesus, have sinned and will sin again. We often think of God’s commands as including only a list of things to do and not do. “Do not sin” seems like a good summary of God’s Law, but that’s only part of the picture. God commands us not to sin, but He also tells us what to do when we do sin. We are commanded to confess our sins. So really, the only way to keep God’s Law continually is to admit that you don’t! God has made a way for us to be reconciled with Him. And, these days, it’s as simple as asking for forgiveness. David didn’t keep God’s Law continually by never sinning, he kept it by admitting His sin and asking God for forgiveness. Do not sin, but when you do, don’t pretend that you didn’t. Keep God’s Law and confess your sins to God.
