Oh no, look at you, sinning again.
I, I didn’t mean to
It doesn’t matter, you still sinned right?
I did sin
Well, what are you going to do?
I can repent, right?
What, so you can just sin again later? Repentance without change isn’t repentance.
I can- I can change, I can stop sinning
How are you going to do that?
God can help-
Wait, you definitely can’t let God see you like this
I’ll make it up to Him, I’ll fix it, I’ll do something
Can a sinner like you be trusted not to mess up again?
I’ll try, I’ll read the Bible five times a day or something to make up for what I did
Wait, do you hear that?
What is it?
I think it’s God’s footsteps, quick, run, hide, you’re not ready for Him to see you right?
Why are you hiding?
Because I messed up. I sinned against God
Does hiding fix things?
No, but it gives me time to fix things
Do you think God doesn’t already know?
Well, I mean, He knows everything
Does this affect how God loves you?
No! … yes… no… maybe?
How are you going to fix things?
I’ll read more, I’ll serve more, I’ll just be a better Christian until I’m good enough
How good is good enough for God?
I… I don’t know
Is it possible to reach God’s perfection?
I mean, I guess not
Did you repent?
No! I can’t yet!
Why not?
I haven’t done anything to make me worthy of forgiveness
Didn’t Jesus already do everything needed for God’s forgiveness?
But… How can I face Him like this?
Why are you hiding?
I’m too ashamed. Can I really go to a loving God like this?
Yes, but God won’t force you out of hiding. Just try not to hide for too long, all you’re doing is hurting yourself, and God.
