Accepting our fault

A city employee in Lodi, California, is suing the city for damages after he backed a dump truck into his own parked car. The 51-year-old man argues that because the "city’s vehicle damaged my private vehicle," the city owes him $3,600. As ridiculous as this sounds, blaming others has been a basic human trait since the beginning.

When we sin, we should take responsibility.

Let’s pray like David: "I acknowledged my sin to You, and my iniquity I have not hidden" (Ps. 32:5).


Lord, help me not excuse my sin
And blame another person;
For if I don’t admit my wrong,
My sin will only worsen. —Sper

The first step in repenting from sin is to admit that you are to blame.
