       Next, we read, “All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned—every one—to his own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all” (Isaiah 53:6, ESV). It is true that everyone one us in the this world is a sinner—a person who does things against God. Sinning is in our nature; it is part of us. That’s why we have a great need for a Savior, and that’s why we proclaim the Gospel of Jesus to others, so this sin problem can be corrected in each one of us. For many of us Christians, we can remember how we lived our lives before we became saved. We can recall that we went our own ways, as we did what we wanted to do in life without input from God and without input from his ordinances—his Word. And as we lived our lives, we realized that something wasn’t right, something was missing. The meaning to life wasn’t there. And then someone shared the Gospel with us, and we believed it, and turned from following our own ways. And now, most of the time hopefully, we experience real life, true life.
