How To Live A Life Without Sin

We sin everyday.

No matter how hard we try, we always end up doing something that offends someone or we do something wrong. I can't tell you that you can live a life "completely" without sin, but you can try. God will see you trying and he will give you grace and mercy.

1.) Do not be prideful

Do not be selfish. Don't think only of yourself. Always think of the well-being of others before you do things for yourself. I'm not saying you can't do things to make yourself happy, but if it involves others, put them before YOURSELF.

2.) Being angry is dumb, and its also a sin

It literally says in the bible that being angry makes you a fool. Instead of getting angry, take a step back and look at the situation. Think about if its even worth getting mad over.

3.) Jealousy

Envying others is when you desire anothers abilities or traits. God sees this as one of the worst sins.

4.) Sloth

Failing to use your physical and spiritual gifts. This is a huge one. God gives each of us gifts that we are suppoed to go out and use for his glory.

This is just a few, but what if we could surpass REPENTANCE? I know as Christians this is one of the biggest things we are taught, but if we just submitted ourselves to God everyday and lived a life without sin everyday, then we could surpass repentance. it is human nature though to sin, this is why we have to repent daily.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

Brooke Davis

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together.
