Sin Is Missing
 
 
 

So How's Your Aim?

Earlier, we examined the way our minds seek out goals. But no matter how well we understand, sometimes we still miss what we're aiming for.

Mankind has been wrestling with this problem of missing the mark for thousands of years. One of our oldest and most feared words originally had the very simple meaning of “to miss the mark.” And what is that word?

“Sin.”

In a marvelous eBook entitled “Why Is This Happening To Me... Again?! ... and What You Can Do About It”, Dr. Michael Ryce, an expert in ancient Aramaic, says in Chapter 13:

“Most of us have bought into sin as something terrible and awful. It is something we have been taught to feel guilty and bad about. Sin was originally meant to be positive feedback. The English translation of the Aramaic word, khata, is 'sin.' It is an archery term. When you fired at a target and missed the bull's eye, the scorekeeper yelled, 'Sin!' ['Khata!'] It meant, 'You are off the mark,' which, in practical terms, means improper for your energy system or less than your highest and best. It does not mean you are evil, damned or should be groveling in the dirt. The simple implication is to adjust your aim, it's time to take another shot, time to do something differently in your life!”

Adjust your aim... only that.

Now, I don't know what your childhood experiences were like, but for me, this sounds a lot more helpful than the scary stuff the preachers were screaming at us from the pulpits when I was a kid. Come to think of it, they're still screaming that stuff.

But you don't have to be beaten down by guilt and fear. Instead, just start adjusting your aim.
