MY DAILY WALK

Scripture reading: Amos Chapter 1 &2

Imagine Amos standing on your street corner, loudly condemning the sins of your neighbours.  He names your friends house by house, moving steadily around the block: “The Hoover’s …, The Luthuli’s…, The Naidoo’s” and then, horrified, you hear him name you!  What would Amos say about you?  Mentally list those short comings, failures, and excesses that would embarrass you the most if announced from your street corner.  Announce them yourself right now to God.  There is no need to wait for fire to fall or a prophet to knock before you tend to an area of your life overdue for change. 

Consider this:  There is no such thing as a little sin because there is no such person as a little God to sin against.
