FACING REALITY

All children like to play “hide and seek.” And our little daughter is no exception.
She does fairly well at it now — too well at times. But when she was younger, the game was quite amusing to us. For when it was her turn to hide, it made little difference to her if she were completely hidden or not. She seemed to think that as long as her face was hidden so that she could not see us, neither could we see her. Just like the proverbial ostrich bury¬ing his head in the sand.
Adults smile at this childish reasoning. But many times, we do no better in our reasoning about sin. How immature and childish we are to believe that just because we close our eyes and hide our faces from our sins, no one else sees them either.

We cannot hide from Him.
Think of it this way. Suppose we refuse to accept the fact that we have a serious illness. This does not make us well. To say we have no hideous malignancy when we know that it is viciously eating away at our very life is not to face the facts. And so it is with sin — ignoring it will by no means lessen its deadly consequences.
In the Bible God speaks simply and plainly of guilt and sin. He declares it to be a fact. In the Old Testament we read, “All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned everyone to his own way, and the Lord hath laid on Him [Christ] the iniquity of us all” (Isa. 53:6). And in the New Testament God says, “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God” (Rom. 3:23). “If we say that we have no sin, we deceive our¬selves, and the truth is not in us” (I John 1:8).
Like others, I have read the writings of many men, but I have yet to find any scientific data that would even suggest that man has a perfect nature and is without sin.

Yet, with all of his talents, he does have a sin problem that must be solved. To ignore this fact is pure folly — no mat¬ter how great our human potential may be.
