Solution to sin

Sin has a solution: Christ. In Christ we see that evil and death is defeated through acts of self-giving. In Christ, we see God giving us His only Son, His very self. In Christ's life and death we see complete self-gift conquering our sin and Love achieving victory over death.

The only thing that can keep you from Him is lack of repentance, for this is the refusal to receive His gift and give yourself to Him. If you are willing to give yourself to Him, then you have joined yourself to the solution of sin.

Our sufferings and joys, failures and successes, when given and joined to those of Christ, become acts of love which defeat evil.
