Just Give Me the Bandaid

Kids who get a cut or splinter or injury often just want the band-aid.  Don’t wash it.  Don’t pull the splinter out.  Just put the band-aid on.

We can be like that.!  We come to Christ with our sin, but all we want is a covering.  We want to skip the treatment.  We want to hide our sin.  We want others to say our sin isn’t really sin.  

And one wonders if God, even in His great mercy, will heal what we conceal?

Scriptures:  John 1:8-2:6; Lamentations 3:19-41
