Disobedience [ Romans 6v23]

As I was driving and trying to keep the speed limit, cars were driving by me breaking the speed limit, and I thought, peoople are naturally disobedient, for with out exception ,we all have broken the speed limit. The question of disobedience is manifest in all of life, no one can trully say they have never disobeyed, children have to be taught to obey, the teacher used to have a cane to enforce obedience.Obedience does not come naturally to humanity, and of course it all started in the historical setting of the garden of Eden, when God gave Adam and Eve a choice, to obey or not to obey, they choose to disobey. When it comes to disobeying God it has serious consequences, eternal consequences, for all of us,seperation from God in that place called hell. In Romans 5v19, we read,/ Because one person disobeyed God, many became sinners. But because one person obeyed God many will be made righteous/. Because of Jesus perfect obedience, we who are naturally disobedience can be forgiven ,our disobedience, if we accept Him as our Saviour, it is amazing but it is true, the question is, will we obey and accept Christ?.[ Dear God help us to acknowledge our disobediece to You and Your laws, and help us to seek forgiveness through Jesus whose perfect obedience can save us . .Amen ]
