Omission a Sin?

James 4:17 So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin. 

This verse has always impressed me, and maybe scared me a little.  I have always believed my relationship with God is a personal relationship.  God has called me and I alone will answer to Him.  I know, I need to seek Him and find out what "thy will be done" in my life.  The sin of omission is where I fail.  It is not what I am doing that is going against God, but what am I not doing that He not only wants me to do, but NEEDS me to do.  Jesus needs me to use my mouth, my hands, my feet to accomplish HIS will.  I think my biggest sin of omission is still clinging on to having "my time."   Dear Lord Jesus, when I call You Lord, it really means You are my master.  I repent of thinking my time on earth is mine.  I give my time to You. Help me and guide me to use the "talents" given me to accomplish Your will each day.  Amen.
