Maybe you’re like me….

Maybe confessing comes slowly, whereas denial comes naturally. Maybe, because of fear or guilt or whatever, you think keeping sin covered up is the safer bet. Maybe bottling it all up seems better.

I know the feeling…

…and I know all the feelings that come with it. Like the Psalmist, I‘ve known the prolonged misery that accompanies secret-kept sins. And I’ve sensed the clear truth of the Word, the promised conviction of God’s Holy Spirit, His hand heavy on me.

Maybe you’re like me.

And maybe we need to confess—now and not later, fully and not in part, guilty and needing mercy.

May we who are faithful pray to Him immediately (v. 6), and may those prayers ever be steeped in repentance.
