Open Our Eyes

I read yesterday that a Christian musician I listened to a few years back is in a homosexual relationship.  What’s more, this person apparently finds this relationship in accordance with Christianity – despite the Bible’s clear statements against it.  Oh the deception of sin!  I find myself wondering if this person is simply trying to justify (excuse) their sin that they find desirable, or have they really come to believe that it is not sin – have they become blind to their sin.  I suppose it would be easy for many to judge this individual, but this entire thing brings two questions to my mind.

Are there sins that I enjoy and seek to justify or excuse?

Are there sins in my own life to which I am blind?

“Search me, O God, and know my heart!  Try me and know my thoughts!  And see if there be any grievous way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.” – Psalm 139:23-24
