The other day, I was asked a question, “what would you consider a small sin?”I stopped and pondered the question and looked at the woman in her late 70’s and said complacency. I was surprised I said this; I had prayed the Lord would fill my mouth that day as I spoke in the nursing home. Was this from the Lord? After all, I knew that all unrighteousness was a sin (1 John 5:17).

Complacency is a feeling of satisfaction with oneself or one’s achievements.

“And I’ll say to myself, “You have plenty of grain laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry.”‘ Luke 12:19

We are given a robe of righteousness when we are saved (Isaiah 61:10). Jesus’s righteousness covers us. When we forsake the Lord and do our own thing, we sin.

God says, “My people have committed two sins: They have forsaken me, the spring of living water, and have dug their own cisterns, broken cisterns that cannot hold water.” Jeremiah 2:13

As Christians, we should constantly grow in the Lord and allow the Lord to fill us with His living water.

“So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall!” 1 Cor 10:12
