[Paul of Eugene OR]

please pray that I will have and exercise self control not letting any desires or feelings cause me to sin.

saying a prayer for you.

However, I have known people who feared greatly they were sinning and they named, as their sin, some harmless things. One college girl confessed to a group of us that she would dance. It was a Christian college that didn't schedule dances, so I asked her how she did this sinning. She would dance by herself in her room. And she thought this was a grave sin!

So part of my prayer is that you will not be burdened by an excessive sense of guilt.

Agree, there are so many things that are sin that can make life tough enough at times, and I think it's probably unhealthy to pile on the unnecessary.

IOW, overload could cause us to drop everything.
