Summary

Have you ever traveled internationally? If you travel to other countries, it’s important to understand the currency. You want to make sure you have a right understanding of the exchange rate because you want to get the cost right. You want to make sure you understand the cost before you purchase something.‌‌ This reminds me of our spiritual lives. Scripture talks about certain things in our spiritual lives which have a cost which we must know. Scripture says that if we are to follow Christ as his disciples we must count the cost. But scripture also speaks of the cost of sin. Sin has a tremendous cost. It doesn’t cost us anything to give into sin, but when we do give into sin, there is an incredible cost.‌‌ Too many times however, we don’t we don’t really understand the cost involved. We don’t really take the time to think about the cost sin will have in our lives. We just get so accustomed to sinning that we just do it! . . . And as we come to Lamentations 1 this morning, we learn of the cost of sin. We learn that sin always has a cost, and we see that cost and its effects in the life of God’s people. So as we come to Lamentations chapter 1, the big idea, and you’ve probably already guessed it, is this:‌‌ sin always has a cost.
