Gone Astray - Isaiah 53:6

Isaiah 53:6 ESV 

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.

We graze in a pasture that was created by God and like sheep we wander away from God toward the pull and seduction of creation. We distractedly go our own way. 

Our rebellion to God and allegiance to self brings iniquity to us all. God has chosen to bear that iniquity if we turn back to Him. 

It can only be ignorance that can explain our rejection. Satan is ignorant to think he can be like the Most High. We are ignorant if we listen to him.
